A 9th grade student and a teacher have tested positive for the coronavirus.

Ebersberg authorities react with immediate measures.

  • A student and a teacher have tested positive for the corona virus in Vaterstetten.

  • The elementary and middle school had to be closed because 22 teachers are in quarantine.

  • A 9th grade is affected at the Realschule.

Update 8.45 p.m.:

As the district office announced late in the evening,

the

school

affected

by the

closure

is the

primary school

on

Brunnenstrasse

in

Baldham

.

The authority made a

mistake

when it first announced that it was a primary and secondary school

.

Vaterstetten

- On the second day of school,

infections with the

coronavirus were

detected

in

two schools in the municipality of Vaterstetten

: A 9th grade student

tested positive

at the Vaterstetten secondary school

.

25 students and four teachers have to be

in quarantine

for

two weeks

.

A proven infection hits elementary and middle schools in the community even harder: because the test result for one teacher was positive,

22 other teachers and a complete class also have to be quarantined for two weeks

.

School closed immediately

This means that the entire

school

must remain

closed

for the

time being

.

The district office of the Ebersberger Zeitung confirmed the cases and the corresponding measures.

When the school can reopen depends on the education authority

When the closed school can open again depends on the education authority, says District Administrator Sebastian Hallmann.

This is already in the process of

sounding out ways in

which the lessons can continue.

"The priority is that nobody who could be infected is at the door when school starts," says Hallmann.

Education Minister Piazolo had recently spoken about the dangers of the new school year.

Those affected probably had no symptoms

In the early evening, the authorities were still busy

informing the families and teachers

concerned

.

Both cases had been proven in voluntary tests, both those affected had

shown

no symptoms
