The Superspreader is said to have infected many people with Corona.
Interior Minister Herrmann denounces cruelty
Bavarian Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann (CSU) also demanded a heavy fine for the alleged perpetrator in an RTL interview. “This behavior was simply inconsiderate toward people at home in Gamisch-sponsored churches,” the Minsiter explained. “The woman obviously knew there was a suspicion of an infection. She was asked to quarantine.” Now she awaits a fine and it will also be checked whether criminal investigations against the woman should be initiated.
“If we only circumvent quarantine measures or do not comply with them, there will be fines under the Infection Protection Act, up to 25,000 euros, by the way,” said legal expert Arndt Kempgens when asked by RTL. If it turns out that the woman has infected other people, there are still other consequences, namely a preliminary investigation into bodily harm, according to the legal expert. In that case, it is even possible to be sentenced to prison.
Was she infected on vacation in Greece?
The responsible district office assumes the outbreak is due to a so-called super spreader. A 26-year-old American is said to have wandered through various pubs in the market town at the foot of the Zugspitze and infected several people in the process. The woman is said to have returned from a holiday in Greece in late August and soon after complained of a sore throat. “The lady had symptoms, she was with us at the test station and she was asked to remain in quarantine due to the symptoms. But she did not do that,” said district office spokesman Stephan Scharf.
The young woman is said to have visited the Irish pub and “Peaches” cocktail bar with her colleagues, where a karaoke party was held. The next day, she got a positive result from her corona test. “We don’t know where it got infected,” says Scharf. The 26-year-old lives and works in Garmisch Patenkirchen at the “Edelweiss Lodge and Resort”, a resort and recreation center of the United States armed forces. On the company’s website, it is already indicated that the facility is currently closed because several employees have contracted Covid-19.
