Class in quarantine – first Omikron case at Viennese school confirmed

Parents outraged by the new rules
The new strict measures in schools recently caused great outrage. As reported, if the new variant is positive at the school, the whole class will be quarantined for 14 days, including vaccinated or recovered children. The tough regulation that families can also meet over Christmas provides for room isolation and the obligation to wear a mask in the rest of the apartment.

Which met with incomprehension among many readers on krone.at. “These are completely unrealistic measures, they cause anger and frustration,” said one user. “Absolutely disproportionate,” another. This also included approving comments, such as: “There are rules for health and they must be adhered to.”
