At the Steinacker School building in Winterthur Seen, the coronavirus occurred “strongly,” as Martha Jakob, president of the Care Lakes-Mattenbach School District, wrote at the request of RADIO TOP. It is not known exactly how many cases were detected. However, what is clear is that the infections also include cases of the mutated virus variant.

Therefore, the district school administration has decided in close consultation with the school medical service and the elementary school authority to temporarily close Steinacker School on Monday and Tuesday (February 1-2), as Jakob continues to write. All grade levels from kindergarten to sixth grade are affected. A massive test was also ordered. Children must be screened no later than Monday night.

Despite the school being closed, the children must continue to learn: teachers are currently planning distance education. In the best case, the school can resume face-to-face classes on Wednesday, February 3. Parents will be informed accordingly on Tuesday.

The Steinacker school building case is one of a whole series of similar cases: on Friday night, for example, the canton ordered the closure of a school in Toggenburg. In the city of St. Gallen there was also an increase in cases at the Engelwies school. And in Schaffhausen, the high school students of the Graefeller school were sent prematurely on their sports vacation.
