Covid crushes nursing homes. New outbreaks are in Zastávka, Kyjov has 32 infected

The whole region has been lit green since Friday at the coronavirus traffic light of the Ministry of Health. The Břeclav, Vyškov and Znojmo regions have been added. This is the first level of emergency without community transmission. There were 917 infected in the region on Friday. Of these, 653 have been added in the last week.

Coronavirus was also proved by test results in the hockey Kometa Brno. A total of twenty-two people became infected. “This applies not only to the players, but also to the members of the implementation team and also to the employees. We will consult with the regional hygiene station on the next steps, “said Libor Zábranský, the owner and head coach of Kometa, for the club website on Saturday.

The first person tested positively on Covid-19 also appeared in the team of the Brno HaDivadlo. “We caught the case in time, we are tracing our own and also in cooperation with the hygiene station. The spectators did not come into risky contact with the person in question, “the theater representatives announced on their Facebook page.

Due to preventive measures against the spread of Covid-19, the theater cancels the program by September 28. “Regarding the return of tickets, the audience will be directly contacted by our box office, which is still open on weekdays from ten in the morning until six in the evening,” added the representatives of the ensemble.

The Brno diocese also reacted to the deteriorating situation. Bishop Vojtěch Cikrle called on the spiritual administrator of the parishes to remove holy water from the sprinklers in churches and chapels, and to leave the salute of the peace to the faithful during the services. Holy communion is to be given to priests by hand while observing hygienic measures. “Please accept all regulations and restrictions as an expression of consideration and responsibility to others,” Cikrle said.

The Security Council of the South Moravian Region has again banned visits to all regional hospitals and retirement homes since Monday. Councilors also announced the opening of two more collection points in hospitals in Břeclav and Kyjov. “They are for pedestrians, it will not be a collection point for entry by car. Both hospitals will test only patients indicated by the regional hygiene station or general practitioner, “said regional spokeswoman Monika Brindzáková.
