Vienna threatens red switch in traffic light meeting today – coronavirus

How “Today” learned, the traffic light commission announced a need for discussion in two federal states prior to its weekly meeting. Such is the situation.

High tension before the weekly meeting of the traffic light commission on Thursday: After evaluating the latest corona data for each individual district of the country, the committee for Wien and Tirol Requested discussion registered – this was learned “Today” from insider circles. As reported, the capital and Upper Austria are currently the only two countries that are on Orange.

Is Tyrol going orange?

Tyrol could be a new addition – it has the lowest 7-day incidence in Austria, adjusted for risk (78.5) (See table below for details). The national average is currently 114.7. Vienna has recently found and isolated more positive cases due to the massively increased test offer. As a result, the value went up from 80 in the previous week to 104 and it must be discussed whether the orange status can be maintained. As a reminder: The limit is actually at an incidence of 100. However, there may be doubts as to whether Tyrol will actually receive a status change due to the rampant South African virus mutation.

But the capital has good cards. As current analyzes show, Vienna is now able to clear up 71 percent of all cases – that is the highest value of all federal states. The Austrian average is 57 percent, with Carinthia bringing up the rear, where contact tracing is only successful in 46 percent of cases.

Risk-adjusted case numbers

➤ Burgenland: 112
➤ Carinthia: 156
➤ Lower Austria: 128
➤ Oberösterreich: 92,5
➤ Salzburg: 125
➤ Steiermark: 159
➤ Tirol: 78,5
➤ Vorarlberg: 99
➤ Wien: 104

“Today” reported Thursday evening on the result of the traffic light meeting.
