The Schwyz Hospital call for help was emotional: “Our isolation ward for Covid patients is getting more crowded every day and the proportion of patients requiring ventilation is increasing.” Hospital officials called on the population to better adhere to the crown’s protective measures. On Sunday, Wallis Hospital also warned of a “dramatic overload” by Covid 19 patients in Lower Valais.

The number of cases in Switzerland also increased significantly over the weekend: from Friday to Sunday, the Federal Office of Public Health (BAG) reports 8,737 coronavirus infections in Switzerland and Liechtenstein, as well as 171 hospital admissions and 14 deaths. In a European comparison, Switzerland is also in a bad position.
