On Monday, the federal government imposed a retrospective quarantine on travelers from England due to the mutation of the corona virus. This had particular consequences for the Valais de Verbier ski resort. Now it is clear: half of the 400 people affected by the community have left the village in a campaign of night and fog.
“Many of them were quarantined for a day before going unnoticed under cover of darkness,” says Jean-Marc Sandoz, communications officer for the Bagnes municipality in Valais, to which Verbier belongs. It is not clear where the tourists went, there were no flights between Switzerland and Great Britain at the time.
