A party in Münster with a 2G concept ran according to strict official requirements.
Nevertheless, over 70 people contracted the corona virus.
Münster / North Rhine-Westphalia - Many federal states are now relying on the 2G model.
After Hamburg, Baden-Württemberg, Berlin and Lower Saxony also followed suit.

Corona cluster: 380 guests, over 70 infected
The 2G rule applied at the club party in Münster: As a result, only those who had been vaccinated and those who had recovered had access to the celebration on September 3rd.
A PCR test wasn't enough to get involved.
The club operators had voluntarily opted for the stricter 2G rule and thus made use of their domiciliary rights.
A total of 380 people took part in the party, the city of Münster is currently talking about 72 infected people.
That comes from a press release on Tuesday.
After the corona cases became known, the authorities in Münster checked compliance with the requirements and the visitors' vaccination certificates. So far, no deficiencies have been found. According to the press release of the city of Münster, the club “adhered to the legal framework and official requirements, according to the current state of knowledge”. The hygiene concept was also "exemplary" and the ventilation systems exceeded the requirements.
However, the investigations have not yet been completed.
The city's health department requested vaccination certificates from the infected people from Münster.

The remaining documents are still pending.
"Further infections are likely, as there are still occasional reports of infections related to the club event," said the city of Münster.
Corona infections at party night in Münster: That is the possible cause
The fact that so many people could become infected was due to breakthroughs in vaccinations and infections from those who had already recovered. The city of Münster announced this on Thursday last week. Crisis team leader Wolfgang Heuer is aware that people can continue to get infected and become carriers despite immunization: "But it is also clear that vaccination extremely reduces the risk of a serious illness." mild. Since the current corona protection ordinance of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia does not provide for the traceability of guests, the search for further possibly affected contacts is difficult, according to the city of Münster. Anyone who was at the party is therefore invited to be tested.
According to RKI figures, breakthroughs in vaccinations are extremely rare. Only around 0.05 percent of all vaccinated people become infected despite complete vaccination protection. However, an infection cannot be completely ruled out, as the example in Münster shows. Experts therefore advise those who have recovered or who have been vaccinated to be tested before large gatherings.
