The Federal government says it’s preparing for more infections and is ready in case of a fourth wave this autumn.
Although the situation is improving right now and restrictions are being lifted, there are plans to rapidly deploy testing and tracing in the case of an upsurge – especially for new variants.
The health minister Alain Berset says they’re not sure if the crisis is over.
While it is expected infections will rise at the end of the summer – how the pandemic unfolds is less sure. The vaccines will have a positive impact on the severity of cases and hospitalizations. The government’s plan is all aimed to make sure the health system can cope.
The vaccine roll out has been a success and it’s expected all those who want to be vaccinated will have had the chance in the next couple of weeks.
There are now plans to try to reach out to those who are hesitant and sections of the population who are hard to reach through traditional media.
