Published: December 17, 2021 7:21 am
The opening of the economy for the vaccinated and convalescent after the fourth lockdown goes into the next round on Friday. In Salzburg, Lower Austria, Carinthia and Styria, the doors of the catering and hotel industries are opening.
Upper Austria unlocks everything in one fell swoop. Only in Vienna will hotels and bars remain closed until Monday (December 20th). Vorarlberg, Tyrol and Burgenland had all the inns open on Sunday, December 12th, except for the night-time gastronomy.
Lockdown for the unvaccinated remains
However, the lockdown for unvaccinated people remains in place throughout Austria. The gastronomy also has to close at 11 p.m., the night gastronomy remains closed in all of Austria until further notice. But apart from that, economic life is possible again, taking into account mask requirements and certain restrictions at events.
Omikron: Increase in the number of infections expected
However, virologists fear a rapid increase in corona infections due to the spread of the new Corona variant Omikron. Some therefore only speak of a breather in the fight against the pandemic.
