Wonderful to be back in #Wengen last night for the @ISPMBern #SwissEpiWinterSchool - to talk about Wengen! Specifically, the Alpha #SARSCoV2 outbreak in Dec 20 - Feb 21 - bringing together 3 different data sources! Alongside @nicolamlow Chris Kosok @JulRiou!
1/4
Thanks to tireless work of many, the #Wengen outbreak was swiftly identified & action was taken. Chris' field observations, cantonal teams of contact tracers, & of course testers & sequencers, mean we're able to bring together sequences, contacts, & observations for analysis!
2/4
The ability to overlay these three types of connections (an example shown below) means we are able to see how multiple layers can contribute to our understanding of the outbreak, & compare the strengths & shortcomings of different approaches!

Alcune immagini che testimoniano dello stato pietoso dei comprensori sciistici di questi giorni in Svizzera (ad eccezione delle località che possono permettersi di portare turisti sopra i 3000/3500 mslm come Zermatt) #neve @MMmarco0 @CoyaudSylvie
↙️ Villars-sur-Ollon ↘️ Gstaad
A Gstaad hanno iniziato a portare neve dall'alto verso le praterie con elicotteri come fanno per es. sui Pirenei (qui sotto per es. a Luchon-Superbagnères). bit.ly/3Cvd4GG bit.ly/3vLRoCv

Meanwhile in #France,
"the peak of this second wave is over"

(according to the President in his Adress to the Nation):
Wait... "the peak is over" doesn´t mean "it´s back to normal"!

Confinement will only fall on December 15,
if there´s less than 5.000 new cases a day.
(today it´s ~9.000).

France is disappointed.🙁

Although they certainly can make it happen.
Meanwhile in #Switzerland:
(excess mortality of the second wave is significant)

Good news: fastest decrease in infections happens in the worst hit areas now.

As #COVID19 cases are found to spread, #Melbourne (city of ~5 million) tries to contain them by going into #Lockdown.
(The interview features the idea of a dedicated #Quarantine building - that would actually help, I guess)...
"People acting as if the pandemic was over was 'not the answer, it is part of the problem' ".

"The virus had leaked from postcodes already under the stay-at-home orders to other parts of #Melbourne."
(and beyond, it is feared).
Due to #Melbourne's outbreak, neighbouring South Australia is about to completely close it's borders to #Victoria.

(Nearly) no exceptions. And those essential few who are allowed in, will have to wear facemasks the entire time...

Vorpommern-Greifswald district (where rejections of #Gütersloh residents took place, yesterday)
has specific rules:
"Those who return from international risk areas (out of Germany) or whose Corona-Warning App has alerted them, need to report to authorites"

In fact, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern's Corona-ordinance really prohibits entry of people from international risk areas AND german risk areas as well.
It's just not prominently featured on their websites.

(Overlooked that myself, hence deleted earlier tweet)

People from #Gütersloh district may have to scrap all their holiday plans anyway...

An official #Lockdown is just being announced for the entire district.
(for one week, as of now)
