Austria Coronavirus Covid-19: 31,827 cases, 750 deaths

https://www.mbc.news/n/2020/03/7712-...d-68-dead.html
Anschober: peak between mid-April and mid-May. Over 1,000 infected people in Vienna. Tyrol continues to be hardest hit.

The number of confirmed coronavirus infections in Austria (as of 8:00 a.m.) rose from 6,909 to 7,697 cases within 24 hours from Friday to Saturday. This is an increase of 788 newly infected people. 800 of these people are in the hospital, 128 are in the intensive care unit.

On average over the past four days, the daily growth was around 17.2 percent, on Friday last week this value was still 23.0 percent, almost 6 percent higher. The 7,399 cases from Saturday, 8:00 a.m., broken down by federal state, continue to result in particularly high numbers of cases for Tyrol (1,801), Upper Austria (1,285) and Lower Austria (1,163). In the federal capital Vienna, 1,029 officially confirmed infections with SARS-CoV-2 were reported. This corresponds to 53 infected people per 100,000 inhabitants.

Crossing the 1,000 mark in Vienna sounds less dramatic if you compare the situation in Tyrol with this: In the Reutte district – the least affected district – the coronavirus was found in 28 people. The Ausserfern, however, has only 33,000 inhabitants. Extrapolated to 100,000 inhabitants, that would be 85.71 infected, which is comparatively significantly more than in Vienna.

At that time, 68 dead had officially died from the virus. Most of the deaths are to be found in Styria (17), Vienna (16) and Lower Austria (13), according to the figures from the Ministry on Friday. Compared to Friday, there is an increase of 19 victims.

Minister of Health Rudolf Anschober (Greens) expects the peak, the peak of the number of diseases, between mid-April and mid-May. But that is only his personal assessment. If the peak occurs later, it will be smaller, and that would be good news, “because then these measures were successful,” he said at a press conference.

The German healthcare system is also highly extensive, meaning it can cope relatively well with a high number of seriously ill patients.

More French patients were airlifted from Strasbourg to German hospitals by helicopter on Monday.

Moscow began a lockdown of its 12 million residents as the Russian government moves to curb an outbreak.

In Austria, shoppers will now be required to wear masks inside stores, authorities announced on Monday.

And in Hungary, the parliament will vote on whether to give Prime Minister Viktor Orban sweeping new powers to tackle the outbreak - critics say they could curtail freedom of speech.

“It is not just about these more than 600 people in Austria who are proven to have been infected there. We also have the same number if not twice that who are now abroad and whose cases are slowly being reported.”

The 611 cases across Austria are just a fraction of the 10,927 cases Austria has reported, but Ischgl has become a byword for a bungled response to a public health emergency. Officials in Vienna and the provincial capital Innsbruck acknowledge mistakes were made.

A Swiss waitress brought the coronavirus to Ischgl more than a month before the quarantine, Allerberger said.

For weeks an apres-ski bar called Kitzloch, where a barman and several tourists were infected, is thought to have been the centre of the outbreak. The bar was ordered closed on March 9.

Authorities in Austria say they will carry out randomized coronavirus testing to get a better idea of its spread in the country.

Until now, only those who are seriously ill with symptoms have been tested. But the government has decided to change its approach.

“By means of representative random sample tests, the government wants to gain a better overview of the infection of the entire population. To this end, 2,000 tests are to be carried out,” Austria’s federal ministry for social affairs, health, care and consumer protection said in a statement to CNN.

The statement added: “In addition, focus tests have been and are being carried out on specific groups, such as medical staff, nurses or supermarket employees. These are PCR tests and the samples are selected to be representative.”

Currently, the number of confirmed cases in Austria stands at 11,171. The death toll is 158.

Austria has recorded 12,969 confirmed cases of coronavirus since the outbreak began, the country’s health ministry said Thursday.

There have been 295 deaths and 5,240 people have recovered from the virus, said the ministry.

Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz announced earlier this week that the country is preparing for a “resurrection” after Easter, which would involve re-opening some shops.

Austria is the first European country to outline loosening of its coronavirus lockdown. However, at the same time, it will also extend the requirement to wear face masks in supermarkets and on public transport

From mid-April, according to the Chancellor's timetable, public life will gradually ramp up. In front of schools and universities, retailers will start operating again. The decisive factor for whether the schedule can be met is the development of the numbers. As soon as a negative development can be seen, the "emergency brake" must be pulled again, said Chancellor Kurz.

......​

Among the cases confirmed so far are mainly people who are over 45 years old. This shows a comparison of the data from the Ministry of Health with the general age structure. In contrast, under 25-year-olds rarely tested positive for COVID-19.
