Virginie Masserey (BAG): 'Reproduction rate is 0.89. 428 people with Covid are in intensive care units, in four cantons the occupancy of the intensive care beds is over 80 percent.'
The virus mutation is spreading in Switzerland, says Masserey (BAG). Less than 1% of the samples show this new variant. 'If you've been to the UK or have had contact with people from Great Britain, you should definitely get tested. With a PCR test and not a rapid test', she says.
The vaccination campaign has started in the cantons. People can register for the vaccination using an online tool. People could also create a digital vaccination booklet via mycovidbag. An official confirmation for the vaccination can also be printed out and presented there.
Vaccine: No person has shown serious side effects yet, says the @BAG_OFSP_UFSP. #Vaccine
The vaccine: '7 days after the 2nd shot (4 weeks after the first) you should be well protected against the Coronavirus', says BAG. #CoronaInfoCH #Vaccine
