Elephant tour – and one of the more experienced “elephants” is missing. This scenario will happen next Sunday. Christian Levrat (50) will be absent from the traditional SRF round, in which party leaders comment on the results of the vote.
The head of the SP is in a “self-isolation” related to Corona, announced Friday afternoon the president of the SP Basel, Pascal Pfister. Levrat had signed up for the farewell party of the recently deceased Helmut Hubacher († 94), but Pfister had to apologize. As a reason, he cited on Friday afternoon that there was a case of corona in the family environment of Levrat.
Had to do a test
Levrat himself commented on Twitter. He is not sick or quarantined. «I had to take the test at noon today and I am waiting for the result. As a precaution, by then I have canceled all my commitments. “
According to the Federal Office of Public Health, self-isolation means that Levrat must stay home and avoid any contact with other people.
Call for votes
Levrat is not the first politician to have contact with Corona. The national advisor of the FDP, Jacques Bourgeois (62), recently made public that he fell ill with Corona in March.
Bitter for Levrat: He won’t be there on voting Sunday. Important documents for the SP remain pending: its own referendum against the fighter plane, its own referendum against child deductions, and the fight against the SVP’s limitation initiative. That is why he closes his tweet with the request not to forget to vote on Sunday. (sf / db)
