How many surgical masks did a pharmacy sell, how many books were borrowed online, how many violations of the Infection Protection Act did the police register?

The Tölzer Kurier collected numbers on the pandemic beyond the seven-day incidence and R-value.

Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen

- On March 11, 2020, the first corona cases in Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen became known.

The Tölzer Kurier draws an annual balance sheet in numbers that reflect the consequences of the pandemic.

28,000 protective gowns

the Asklepios Clinic in Bad Tölz used up in 2020 - almost three times as many as in 2019. The clinic only needed 10,949 protective gowns.

The consumption of disinfectants doubled in 2020 compared to the previous year.

There were 5,000 liters of disinfectant in 2019, in 2020 it was more than 10,000 liters of disinfectant.

Since the beginning of the pandemic, the clinic has

provided inpatient care to

around 280

Covid patients

, including 42 intensive care

units

.

103 advertisements about short-time work for 661 people

from the Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen district, the employment agency in Rosenheim checked in January 2021 alone.

For comparison: In January 2019, the employment agency checked fewer than three advertisements about short-time work for fewer than three people.

4800 FFP2 masks

sold the old and new farm pharmacies in Bad Tölz in 2021,

compared

to

2500 FFP2 masks

in the previous year

.

There are also

600 surgical masks

in 2021 and

26,000 surgical masks

last year.

Five percent more electricity

the Bad Tölz municipal utilities delivered to households in 2020, compared to the previous year.

Spokeswoman Julia Mohaupt does not attribute this slight increase to the corona-related home office, but to the customer increase of three percent.

This is also supported by the fact that water consumption, gas and local heating have remained almost constant compared to the previous year.

2445 tons of bulky waste

have been delivered to the collection points of the Wertstoffgewinnungs- und Vermarktungsgesellschaft Quarzbichl (WGV) 2020 -

an increase of 28.7 percent compared to the previous year

with 1899 tons.

The amount of residual waste has increased by almost three percent, the amount of organic waste by almost seven percent and the amount of packaging waste by 6.5 percent.

"In addition to the usual population growth, the increases can safely be attributed to the corona lockdown," says WGV managing director Reiner Späth.

"As far as bulky waste is concerned, we were almost overrun at our collection points, especially in the first lockdown, so we pulled the emergency brake and temporarily closed our facilities."

Around 13 percent fewer overnight stays by tourists

Compared to 2019, the Bad Heilbrunn Guest Information Office records 2020. This does not include overnight stays in the Bad Heilbrunn specialist clinic.

Three times as many sleds and bobs

sold the Lenggries store “Sport Sepp” in the 2020/2021 winter season compared to the previous season.

This is because winter sports enthusiasts have turned to tobogganing because the ski lifts are closed.

However, bobsleighs and sledges

only make up one percent

of Sport Sepp's

total sales

.

The main business from December to February is the sale of alpine ski equipment.

Here managing director Manuela Schlosser recorded

a minus of 90 percent

.

Five weddings

took place in 2020 in the parish church of Maria Himmelfahrt in Tölz.

In 2019 there were

25 weddings

.

In the parish church of St. Nikolaus in Wackersberg,

only one couple

dared to go to the altar in

2020

; in 2019 there were seven couples.

According to the parish office, this trend will continue this year.

"We have already had a lot of inquiries from couples who want to secure an appointment for 2022," said one employee.

In contrast, the pandemic was hardly reflected in the number of baptisms: in

2020 there were 37 (previous year: 43) in Maria Himmelfahrt and 25 (previous year: 28) in Wackersberg

.

"In the summer months, our pastors practically baptized in piece," said the pastor's office.

"People wanted their children to be baptized and have used the relaxation of the Corona rules in the summer for smaller baptisms."

Zero weddings

took place in 2020 in the evangelical parish of Bad Tölz.

In 2019 there were twelve.

After all,

21 baptisms

took place in 2020, 38 in the previous year.

Only ten weddings took place in the Tölzer Kurhaus in 2020.

Only ten weddings

took place in 2020 in the Tölzer Kurhaus

.

In 2019 there were still

90 wedding celebrations

, as the Buena Vista Event and Gastronomy GmbH announced.

The stage program in the Kurhaus is also suffering from Corona: According to the Department for Tourism and Culture, around

130 events had

to be canceled in

2020

, including concerts, musicals and cabarets.

At least 100 events could be carried out from June to October with corona conditions.

50 percent less gasoline

than usual, Heinrich and Irmgard Zens from the Lenggries gas station sold Zens during the first lockdown.

Nevertheless, the amount of gasoline they sold over the course of 2020 remained the same compared to the previous year: "In summer 2020 we sold significantly more than in summer 2019. Probably because people went on vacation at home", suspects Heinrich Zens.

Twelve Easter bunny nests

The Himmelszelt daycare center in Bad Heilbrunn brought those children who were cared for at home during the first lockdown.

In the last lockdown, the educators surprised the children who were not in emergency care with

16 carnival

bags

.

1600 corona advertisements

counted the police headquarters of Upper Bavaria South in the district in 2020. "The total number of violations detected is certainly somewhat higher, because not all cases were reported," says police spokesman Stefan Sonntag.

The number of

traffic accidents fell

by 16.3 percent in 2020, from 3752 accidents in 2019 to 3140. It is unclear whether burglars can be deterred by the fact that so many people are at home.

According to Sonntag, however, it became apparent that the

number of burglaries

in the district is at a similarly low level as in 2019 - there were 29. In the number of cases of

domestic violence

, the Upper Bavaria South Police Headquarters recorded an increase of 111 criminal offenses in the area of ​​responsibility.

In 2019, 1612 cases were recorded, in 2020 there were 1723.

90 requests for admission to the women's refuge

31 inquiries more

than in the previous year.

The number of overnight stays has also increased.

From 4518 overnight stays in 2019 to 5171 in 2020

.

“The number of overnight stays is not that meaningful,” says Nicoline Pfeifer from the women's refuge, “as we

had to

turn away

a total of 64 women in 2020 due to a lack of space

.” The increase in domestic violence during the pandemic is also reflected in the number of outpatient consultations:

2019 were it was 213, in 2020 it will be 251

.

23 percent more online loans

+

A big plus: The Bad Tölz public library lent out more books in the Corona year than in 2019 - thanks to online lending.

The Bad Tölz public library registered 2020 compared to 2019. This increase meant that, despite the temporary closure in 2020, even more media were lent out than in 2019. Last year there were 170,227 borrowed media, in 2019 only 152,921. people were forced to stay at home more and therefore read more, ”says deputy library director Irina Schwindt.

However, the desire to read fluctuates in waves from year to year without an explanation.

The number of visitors, on the other hand, has fallen significantly, from 73 554 visitors in 2019 to 32 195 in 2020.

By 62.27 percent

The occupancy rate of the Bad Tölz Youth Hostel has decreased in 2020 compared to the previous year.

30,486 overnight stays

and

11,544 guests

11,501 overnight stays

and

4,370 guests

in 2020
