Guests belong to category 2
The infections of three employees were known on Saturday, then the hotel was closed and all employees had to be tested. The hotel was vacated and around 200 guests had to leave. You don’t have to isolate yourself. “According to the recommendations of the Robert Koch Institute and the stipulations of the district health office, the guests belong to category 2. That means they did not have face-to-face contact with employees for more than 15 minutes,” Reinhard said. Sager (CDU), District Administrator for the Ostholstein District.
Infections despite strict hygiene measures.
According to the Ostholstein district, the first three infected had worked in different areas of the house. Hotel manager Brigitte von Oven announced over the weekend that the infection chains could no longer be traced. Since hygiene measures in the hotel were strict, assume that employees outside the hotel were infected. It is not known when Seeschlösschen will reopen.
