- The corona virus continues to dominate the headlines.
- There are dozens of new infections in Bavaria too.
- Numerous schools remain closed - there is all information here.
Update of March 9, 2020 : For the first time, the municipality of Grasbrunn in the Munich district is also said to be affected by a viral disease.
The primary school in Neukeferloh will be closed from March 10 to March 13, the Grasbrunn community announced on Monday evening.
A statement states:
Due to contact between schoolchildren and a positive person during non-school sporting events, the Neukeferloh primary school will be closed from Tuesday, March 10th through Friday, March 13th. As a precaution, the State Health Office of the Munich district recommended that a possible infection chain be interrupted.
It also says:
The noon care at the elementary school, the day care center in the children's world and the day care center in the Kath. Kinderhaus St. Christophorus are also affected by the closure. The parents were all informed by email or letter to the parents. As a further precaution, according to the health department, the siblings of the school children (from GS Neukeferloh and Grund- und Mittelschule Vaterstetten and the Humboldt-Gymnasium) should stay at home and not visit the day care centers.
The municipal administration points out that as a precautionary measure, all contact areas in the primary school and in the day care centers have been cleaned daily for two weeks (Mon-Fri). The local government asks to also observe the recommendation of the Ministry of Health for schoolchildren and kindergarten children. These stipulate that returning travelers from high-risk areas are now not allowed to visit the facilities for 14 days. You can find an overview of the current risk areas at the Robert Koch Institute at www.rki.de. The municipal administration of Grasbrunn will examine further measures in consultation with the health department and will also keep you informed on their homepage www.grasbrunn.de . "
Corona virus in Bavaria: number of infected people increases - dozens of schools remain closed
Update from 11.32 a.m . : Previously heat-free - today Corona holidays. Many children will later remember that their classes in 2020 were down for days or even weeks because of a virus. In Germany, the following usually applies: if there is a confirmed case in an educational institution, it is temporarily closed. An overview of closed schools in Bavaria can be found below.
The first data analyzes show that, unlike flu, children at Covid-19 are probably not significant drivers of the spread of the virus in the community. For Sars-CoV-2, it is anticipated that children will rarely develop clear symptoms, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). It can therefore also be assumed that children are infected primarily by adults - but adults hardly by children.
"School closures can make sense if hygiene measures cannot be guaranteed," says virologist Ulrike Protzer from the Technical University (TUM) and the Helmholtz Zentrum München. "But you have to consider the enormous impact on the economy and especially on the health system, when the young parents can no longer go to work but have to look after their children."
