The country towards selective closures

The British government does not rule out the possibility of imposing a selective lockdown on UK university students for Christmas, in an extreme case, as a precaution by forbidding them to return home to their families in the face of a possible widespread risk of contagion. The Minister of Health, Matt Hancock, said today in the context of the alarms that are multiplying in various universities after the general reopening of face-to-face courses in early September. Of concern are the outbreaks of universities such as Liverpool (Northern England), which recorded at least 87 positive tests among students and staff in a few weeks; or the Scots in Dundee and especially in Glasgow, which according to updated data to date has reached at least 120 infections, with another 600 people placed in isolation for contacts. Situations that have raised controversy on the part of the unions and have led the rectors to repress the precautionary obligations of young people on campus. “I don’t want to ‘have to impose the Christmas lockdown’ and I really hope to avoid it,” Hancock told the BBC. “But quelling the virus, while protecting the economy and education,” keeping schools and universities open, “is a priority objective – he added -. An objective to guarantee with any tool available at the right time, to protect both the health of the students and that of other people. “

Germany more than two thousand infections

For the fourth time in a month, Germany exceeds 2,000 new coronavirus infections in one day, reaching 2,143, reports the Robert Koch Institute this afternoon. “After a temporary stabilization of cases at a high level, a further growth of infections is currently observed in the population,” read a statement from the German public health institute this afternoon. Most worrying is the contagion situation in North Rhine-Westphalia, Bavaria and the worrying increase in cases in Berlin, which reached 13,753 infections in total, with a daily increase of 199 new infections yesterday. The mayor of the German capital, Michael Mueller, told Zdf that he assumed that “we should indeed introduce new restrictions.” In North Rhine-Westphalia, on the other hand, he plans to introduce the rule that private parties must be announced two weeks in advance and participants must be communicated.
