Current recommendations
Currently, no COVID-19 measures are in effect at the University of Innsbruck. However, the following recommendations still apply:
- Observe the usual safety precautions & hygiene regulations (including hand hygiene, disinfection of surfaces, regular ventilation).
- Stay at home if there are signs of a Covid 19 infection!
We would like to point out that COVID-19 is still a notifiable disease in the sense of the Epidemic Law and that persons who test positive must comply with the current legal measures (e.g. FFP2 mask obligation, prohibition to enter). For more information on the COVID-19 traffic ban, click here.
The Corona working group will remain in place for the time being. Thus, you can continue to contact corona@uibk.ac.at with questions about COVID-19.
Please also always refer to the latest Rector´s team mailing (Coronavirus: Update February 3rd, 2023).
