Switzerland does not think about the pandemic: there were 5,058 new infections on Thursday alone, 100 people die every day and the trend is increasing. In recent weeks, Switzerland has unfortunately shown one thing above all: that we cannot Crown.
That needs to change. The number of new infections should decrease. Otherwise, death continues. Otherwise, our healthcare system will collapse. What is needed now are effective measures, a holiday lockdown, and a strategy to keep the numbers from skyrocketing later.
For the economy, severe restrictions are better for a short period of time than a pandemic that continues until spring. If we reduce the numbers quickly, female athletes can get back on track faster, performers can inspire audiences again, and we can all live more normal again. Therefore, 15 personalities from different fields demand: The Federal Council must act today.
Regula Rytz (58), National Green Councilor
“So you can save lives and compensate for business closures fairly and without bureaucracy.”
Michel Péclard (50), restorer
‘Because the little hosts have water high above the tube. And water up to the neck for the great restaurateurs. Opening hours until 7 pm bring Beizentod in installments. Now a closure is urgently needed. For the sake of health and the economy. “
Nino Colonna (47), owner of 4 hairdressing salons in Bern
«So that the health system does not collapse. With the request not to forget the small business owners who are suffering as a result. “
Monika Rühl (57), Director Economiesuisse
“So that the hospitals are not overloaded and there are no more painful restrictions on the economy and social life afterward.”
Bertrand Levrat (51), Director of the Geneva University Hospital
‘Significantly reduce the number of infections through protective measures and further relieve hospitals. This is the only way to have enough resources available to maintain supply to the population. “
Mattea Meyer (33), SP Co-Chair
“To prevent a lasting crisis, with the necessary measures to protect health, necessarily accompanied by generous financial aid for all those affected directly and indirectly.”
Patrick Frey (69), author and satirist
“Because an immediate closure throughout Switzerland is the only way to act in solidarity and say with credibility: we don’t want so many people from Corona to die, no matter how old they are.”
Patti Basler (44), satirist and comedian
“Because we are tired of federalism, of the nursing emergency, of the dead, of expertise, of personal responsibility.”
Peter Reichenbach (66), film producer
“Because we only have one chance that soon we will be able to enjoy cinema, theater or concerts again.”
Meta Hiltebrand (37), Starköchin
“Because I want a common thread in the fight against Corona and not vague rules and arbitrary decisions that destroy small businesses without compensation.”
Dr. Medicine Christoph Andreas Fux (52), Chief Physician for Infectious Diseases and Hospital Hygiene, Aarau Cantonal Hospital
“So that our country can be productive again as quickly as possible.”
Roswitha Koch (57), Swiss Professional Association of Women and Men Nurses
“Because too many people die and caregivers are running out of strength.”
Kristian Schneider (49), executive director of the Biel Hospital Center
“Because our nurses and doctors should experience fewer tragedies and want a ‘normal’ job!”
Vania Alleva (51), president of Unia
“Because health and social security can only be protected together and Switzerland can afford it.”
Monika Kaelin (66), cheerleader
“Because there is no better time to restrict contacts than at Christmas and New Years. Otherwise, the health system threatens to collapse completely. “
