On Friday, Swiss government to announce major austerity of anti-mature measures - CO VID

Federal adviser Alain Berset has on Monday held a video conference with cantonal health directors regarding measures to combat the coronary. The closure of restaurants, leisure facilities, cultural and sports facilities are planned as future austerity measures.

The situation is serious and disturbing, Beset and Lucas Engelberger, president of the Conference of Cantonal Health Directors, writes “Arigauer Zeitung” So they have declared:

The next Friday “, the Federal Council will decide on further measures to fight pandemic”.

However, neither Berset nor Engelberger have discovered to the public what specific plans have proposed cantons, research done by CH Media newspapers relates:

“The federal government wants to install a so-called “traffic system” and, depending on the epidemiological development, set further restrictions”.
The traffic system is linked to these four indicators: 14-day incidenence, reproductive value, the positive rate in tests and the loading of the health system.

Beset and Engelberger made it clear that the lives of citizens will soon be further restricted, that restaurants, for example, could be closed in just a few days.

Engelberger has said this time more clearly than ever that health directors want the Federal Council to tighten the measures.

Otherwise, according to the consultancy document, the Federal Council will decide on additional measures for the first time on December 28th and the second time on January 5th.

So will three steps of escalation:

Scale 1: They're going to close restaurants except for food kiosks “take away”, escorts albinfo.ch. The same is true of leisure and sports activities as tennis. Cultural and entertainment institutions also remain closed.
Scale 2: Provides capacity restrictions in stores: Only a certain number of people are allowed to enter a store at the same time. Protecting sensitive populations, such as residents of senior homes, and so on.

As in the spring, in the first wave, the right to work from home will enter into force. Whoever belongs to the risk group but works at a job that requires physical presence may be allowed to take a break. But it is still open who will pay for the loss of profits in this case.

Scale 3: They shut down shops that do not offer food and other items of daily use.
Outside, they can spontaneously gather 10 instead of 15 people as of now.

Schools Continue to Remain Open

Parents can breathe more easily. The closure of schools, as in Germany, is not planned for the moment. Hair sausages or tattoo studios are also not marked at levels of escalation as locals that could soon be closed. Hotels will also be accepted by guests.

As for ski resorts, the decision remains with cantons, they decide whether the epidemiological situation allows them to remain open.

But one thing should be considered: Theoretically, relatively good cantons can attract many guests from regions more heavily affected by the pandemic.
