Corona alarm at SV Sandhausen: The second division soccer team is affected by 18 positive cases in the team and their environment. All persons have gone into quarantine at home after consulting the responsible health department. This was announced by the association from Baden-Württemberg. It is unclear whether the game at leaders FC St. Pauli can take place next Sunday.
The information in Table 15. According to yesterday, some professionals with cold symptoms reported. “After consultation with the hygiene officers and team doctors, Dr. Nikolaus Streich and Dr. Falko Frese, a comprehensive rapid test was carried out immediately,” said the association. When there were indications of Covid 19 infections, an extensive PCR test was then carried out. The evaluation produced positive results for twelve players and six coaches. Thanks to the vaccination protection, there are mostly mild courses. Some people showed slight signs of a cold.
“This high number of findings came as a surprise to us all. The large number of symptom-free patients can, however, be traced back to the very high vaccination status within the team as well as the coaching and support staff,” said Sandhausen’s team doctor and hygiene officer Nikolaus Streich.
It was only last week that the SVS decided to use the 2G model for the future home games, i.e. access only for those who have recovered and who have been vaccinated. “Also to emphasize the importance of the vaccination status again”, as the association writes on its website and also affirmed “its position in favor of vaccination”. According to their own statement, the second division has supported mobile vaccination offers several times and has also made its own premises at the stadium available for this purpose.
