Information Rectorate/21.10.2020

21. October 2020
Dear university members,
 
Due to the new measures of the Federal Government in connection with Covid-19, which were announced at the beginning of this week, the Rectorate discussed in detail an adjustment of the Covid regulations at the Angewandte. We hereby inform you about the result of the discussion: 
 
Until further notice, the YELLOW operating mode remains in place. Courses have got off to a good start and are functioning well under the changed conditions. The constantly low number of confirmed Covid cases within the university also shows that the measures taken are largely adhered to and have a positive effect. In addition, the Federal Ministry of Education, Science and Research continues to recommend traffic light status yellow for the university sector. 
 
In order to avoid a change to ORANGE for as long as possible, we ask you to continue to observe the hygiene and safety regulations (keep a distance of 1.5 m, wear a mask, ventilate regularly and wash/disinfect hands) and thank you very much for actively supporting all measures taken so far.
 
We will of course keep you informed about any changes. 
 
If you have any questions or in case of suspicion of Covid, please contact the Covid staff unit (covid@uni-ak.ac.at).
 
Many thanks and kind regards,
Gerald Bast, Bernhard Kernegger, Barbara Putz-Plecko, Eva Maria Stadler and Maria Zettler
