While the coronavirus quarantine in Austria is about to end, it has already fallen in some neighboring countries. You no longer have to isolate yourself after a positive test in Slovenia, Switzerland and Liechtenstein. The Italians, who were mainly affected by illness and death at the start of the first wave, are still quite strict.
In Italy, people who get corona symptoms have to isolate themselves for ten days – as was the case in Austria. In the southern neighboring country, the quarantine for those who tested negative will end after three days. However, people who have received a booster vaccination can ‘test’ themselves after seven days, provided they are symptom-free.
No “free testing” in Germany
Germany is also still adhering to the quarantine, but there it will only last five days. After that, it is recommended that you get tested again. A “free test” is not planned. In the Czech Republic, compulsory isolation lasts for a minimum of seven days and can then be terminated by a general practitioner. In Slovakia, a general practitioner determines the duration of the quarantine for people with complaints, without complaints this is five days.
Also in Hungary, confirmed Covid cases must self-isolate. After seven days, the quarantine can be ended if there are no more symptoms. If symptoms have resolved after the fourth day, isolation can be terminated the following day after a negative test result.
These countries have abolished measures
There has been no quarantine in Slovenia since May. However, it is recommended that you isolate yourself for a week and test yourself daily. Switzerland abolished the measure in April this year, as did Liechtenstein.
