“Concern. That is the word of the moment,” Lukas Engelberger, chairman of the Health Directorate Conference on Swiss Radio SRF on Tuesday said of Corona’s current situation in Switzerland. Now it is up to the population to avoid new measures by changing their behavior.
For a relatively long time, the number of cases has been linear or even decreasing, Engelberger said on “Tages talk.” “The situation may have given us too much confidence.” But that is a dangerous illusion. It had grown cold, life was coming back inside. Perception and behavior would have to change again.
No “careless occasions”
Everyone has the key in their hands to ensure that the numbers do not continue to increase through careful behavior, for example, at family and company events, at aperitifs and in club life. Wearing masks, keeping your distance and not doing any “careless acts” is important, also to ensure contact tracing, which is currently reaching the capacity limit in some cantons.

Organizers of big events also have to be very careful, “you can’t take anything anymore,” Engelberger said. Since the beginning of October, large events such as football matches or ice hockey have been allowed again. However, according to information from Engelberger, they are not the drivers of new infections.
Depends on what people implement
As long as discipline exists in events, private occasions or in clubs, no additional measures such as closures or the banning of events are necessary. However, if there are other clues, you have to “spell it out” and reduce the number of people in a stadium again.
Now the cantons are being asked to see if they need to sharpen the measures. It assumes that more measures will be taken in various cantons. However, in the end, it depends on what people implement. (SDA)
