Vienna / Düsseldorf After the massive Corona outbreak in the Gütersloh district, Austria has now issued a travel warning for all of North Rhine-Westphalia. From the point of view of the ministry, there is a lower risk for the rest of Germany.
“In connection with the renewed spread of the corona virus, a partial travel warning (security level 5) applies to North Rhine-Westphalia – warnings against trips to North Rhine-Westphalia are given,” said the website of the Austrian Foreign Ministry on Wednesday.

For the rest of Germany, the Ministry sees a lower security risk (level 4) with the proviso: “Travel to the country that is not absolutely necessary is discouraged.” There are a total of 6 levels. The highest applies if the travel warning affects an entire country. The Chinese province of Hubei and Italian Lombardy are currently on the same “partial” level as NRW in Austria.

Lower Saxony has meanwhile issued a ban on accommodation for tourists from the Gütersloh region. “The state will apply the regulation already in place in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and Bavaria in the tourism sector to people from the Gütersloh area,” said government spokeswoman Anke Pörksen on Wednesday in Hanover.
