Re: Switzerland: Confirmed cases - 241

[Translated from French]

The Swiss government confirmed 241 cases as of today. Link

Cases will not be analyzed individually anymore, Switzerland is dedicates itself only to risk cases. The cumulative figures are therefore not representative of cases in Switzerland, but only of those confirmed cases.
