It’s one person per table who has to give their contact details according to the BAG rules so if you’re on your own it’s obvious that you need to do it.
I guess the coop didn’t think they needed to tell people that.

| | Re: Coronavirus | Quote: | |  | | | Dry ice is quite common and relatively easy to make. It is typically at -78.5°C. Logistics difficult but not impossible. In the third world more difficult but still not impossible. | | | | | Reminds me that some 60 years ago I had a job driving a truck selling icecream, every morning I had to add dry ice to the freezers before loading the icecream..
Anyway back to the topic; The US reports 3,100 coronavirus deaths in one day -- 20% more than the previous record. The spike in coronavirus deaths came on the same day the number of people hospitalized broke 100,000.

The only new restriction is 4 (including children) at a table from max 2 households.

Theirs going up though, while ours come down (slowly).

| | Re: Coronavirus | Quote: | |  | | | Given that the number 1 vaccine producers in Europe will be the UK and then Switzerland, its really a crisis for everyone except in the UK if what you say is true. | | | | | Really not sure for vaccines in general but the known European production centres for the current 3 vaccines close to approval are Belgium, Italy and Switzerland. | Quote: | |  | | | | | | | | Sadly the numbers are no longer going down - the curve has flattened since last week and today's number is pretty well the same as last Thursday.
As for the last few days the French speaking cantons are all moving along nicely, the German ones basically static or increasing.
Graubünden have just announced a 2 week restaurant closure from Friday.

It is alcohol sales that have been clamped down on which is the biggest change for Neuchâtel.

Just to be clear I am not talking about live music

| | Re: Coronavirus | Quote: | |  | | | Even if you sit outside?  | | | | | In December and January? If you allowed only that I doubt the bars and restaurants could function anyway - but if they could sure, why not.
Obviously takeaway should be allowed.

| | Re: Coronavirus | Quote: | |  | | | | | | | | I hadn’t seen that one. We didn’t have that one here, just live music and dancing etc was on the forbidden list.
It appears they’re now allowing it but restricting the maximum volume.

The place was absolutely packed at 4pm with guests in their 60s and 70s enjoying their Cafe Creme and cake. At least they were not yodeling.

| | Re: Coronavirus | Quote: | |  | | | Unfortunately I think bars and restaurants probably need closing until the elderly are vaccinated - which Switzerland appears to be slow on unfortunately. | | | | | I have a feeling I'm about right on COVID as I get groaned by both wings!
Got groaned about a month ago for suggesting no need to lock down whilst R is below 1 and cases falling, and now getting groaned for suggesting restrictions now a return to R > 1 looks on the cards!
