Dozens of countries or regions are currently on the Federal Office of Public Health (BAG) quarantine list. Two weeks ago, among others, the Czech Republic, Vienna and parts of France were declared risk zones.
The list is likely to adjust again this week, and given the current number of cases, other countries could appear on the list.
Right at the beginning of the fall holidays, according to information from BLICK, a popular tourist destination for sun lovers will definitely be on the list: Portugal!
According to a SRF list, the current limit of 60 corona cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the last 14 days is clearly exceeded with 85 cases per 100,000 inhabitants.
Mainland Portugal “in an ‘exceptional state'”
With Portugal, the travel obstacle increases to another destination. If BAG implements its plans, returnees from Portugal must be quarantined for ten days. Those who do not comply can be fined up to 10,000 Swiss francs.
The Swiss embassy in Portugal currently writes on its website: “Since September 15, mainland Portugal is in an ‘exceptional state’.” Therefore, more restrictive rules apply, particularly regarding meetings and the opening and closing hours of business establishments.
He also recommends Swiss tourists in Portugal to register on the Traveladmin website. “This allows us to contact you if necessary and provide you with information,” was the reasoning.
In the case of Spain, France and Austria, the FOPH recently put the entire country on the quarantine list, only individual regions. The aim is to eliminate individual infection centers and continue to guarantee cross-border trafficking.
Therefore, it is very possible that other countries also differ between regions.
The coronavirus currently occupies the whole world and every day there are news. All current information on the subject is available on the coronavirus ticker.
