All visitors who visited the Altdorfer “Tellenbar” or the “Londoner” over the weekend must be quarantined. Hundreds of people are likely to be affected.
The mass quarantine for 400 people was not only ordered in the canton of Nidwalden. Also in the canton of Uri, 300 party guests now have to stay home. Last weekend there were two people in at least two bars in Altdorf who tested positive for Covid-19 on October 13. According to well-informed sources, they are the “Tellenbar” and the “Londoner”. Contact Tracing Uri tried to contact all registered visitors to the bar since Wednesday afternoon to pray for them to go into quarantine.
A total of 450 contact persons are now under quarantine in Uri. 42 of them are due to quarantine for traveling to a risk area. On October 15, at 9:30 a.m., 41 cases of people who tested positive for the coronavirus were known in Uri. Two Covid patients are still in the hospital.
Tellenbar, the biggest nightclub at the bottom of the Uri valley, doesn’t want to take a stand. But it strictly adheres to Gastro Suisse protection concepts. In particular, visitors must leave their contact details, which will be controlled by security personnel. However, the forms filled out by hand cause difficulties for the contact tracing team, according to a press release.
Contact details are sometimes difficult to decipher
“Unfortunately, the contact tracing job was made more difficult because the contact details were not always given in a complete, correct and legible manner. However, it was possible to contact most of the visitors, ”writes Uri’s special staff. “However, anyone who was away from home at one of the two Altdorf nightspots on the night in question and has not yet been contacted should contact Uri’s contact tracing team immediately at 041 875 50 55.”
On Wednesday, October 14, according to the special staff, there was an exchange of information and ideas on the current evolution of the situation between a delegation from the government council and senior representatives of the business sector, retail, gastronomy and municipalities of the canton of Uri. In addition to the current exchange of information on the situation of Corona in the canton of Uri, possible measures were discussed jointly in the event of a further increase in the number of cases. “The dialogue between the authorities and the economy also served to gather ideas and suggestions on how a new blockade in the canton of Uri can be prevented,” the message said. “There was agreement that everything possible must be done to avoid this harsher measure.”
Take personal responsibility now
The conference participants were very concerned about the latest evolution in the number of infections in the canton of Uri. “The entire population of Uri is now being asked to take responsibility for protecting Uri’s economy, people at risk and health institutions.” The distance of 1.5 meters between people and hygiene regulations must be respected. “If this is not possible or if there are large concentrations of people, hygienic masks should be worn voluntarily, especially in closed rooms. This is how you can protect yourself and others. “Local protection concepts must be strictly adhered to in restaurants and shops, businesses and events.
In order to break the chains of infection in time with isolation and quarantine measures, contact tracing is also based on successfully completed attendance lists. “Special personnel will adjust the controls accordingly,” he emphasizes.
