Graubunden - Ski Areas Can Operate Until The End Of The Season

The Swiss government takes note that the conditions for the operation of the ski resorts are still in place. Accordingly, it grants the permit for further operation until the end of the season. The effective multi-pillar strategy to combat the pandemic supports the decision.
The government is extending the license to operate the ski areas until the end of the season. The extensive test concept and the assessment of the epidemiological situation contributed to this decision. The canton of Graubünden has been pursuing a consistent multi-pillar strategy to combat the pandemic since December. The evaluation of the data from the pilot area tests has shown that the pandemic can be contained with regular area tests. These area tests can substitute restrictive measures. Numbers are going in the right direction
Both the number of people in isolation and the number of new infections on a weekly average per day have continued to decrease. In addition, the relevant reproduction value has also continued to decline. Experience over the past few months has shown that keeping ski areas open does not have a negative impact on these numbers. The guests are well distributed among the various offers. In this way, crowds of people, which increase the risk of infection, can be avoided. The ski areas have also performed their tasks and have contributed to largely avoiding the gathering of guests.
The government is constantly assessing the development of the epidemiological conditions. If the situation changes, the license can be withdrawn from winter sports operations if the requirements are no longer met
