Special Coronavirus

The coronavirus continues to spread: The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the virus outbreak a pandemic. A pandemic is an unrestricted outbreak of disease that is capable of causing serious illness and spreading easily from person to person. Accordingly, Bavaria and Saarland have decid-ed in the night of 13 March 2020 to close all schools and day-care centres from Monday 16 March 2020 until the beginning of the Easter break on 4 April 2020. It is to be expected that the remaining federal states will follow this example. Furthermore, almost all major events have been cancelled. Infected employees or those who are suspected of being infected with the coronavirus are in quarantine due to official orders.
