At least 37 people tested positive for the coronavirus following a major teenage birthday party in New York State. "Dozens of people from the Sweet 16 party fell ill," said Governor Andrew Cuomo.
"That shows how an event can generate so many cases". More than 80 people took part in the celebration, which was organized by a party organizer on the Long Island peninsula off New York at the end of September.
The number of participants at such events in the region is currently limited to 50 due to corona requirements. More than 270 people had to be quarantined in connection with the party, including numerous young people from nearby schools.
One of them even had to be temporarily closed.

"I have the impression that we are coming to a uniformity that means that there is almost no more ban on accommodation in Germany," he said in Berlin. Courts had recently lifted the regulation in some federal states.
In addition, more and more federal states, most recently Bavaria and Hesse, have announced that they will be phased out.

Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier supports German offers of help for the admission of corona patients from other EU countries. It is a requirement of European solidarity to help neighbors in acute need, says his spokeswoman.
“That is why he is in favor of offering EU partner states that are badly affected at an early stage, concrete help if there is capacity.
The Federal President follows with sympathy that there are already offers from individual federal states to accept intensive care patients from other European countries. "

Thailand plans to issue 1,200 visas per month to help ease the loss of foreign tourists over the last five months as tourism is severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, according to the report.
