Coronavirus case

25 Jan '22

To all those who attended Saturday’s event, A participant of the meeting informed us that they tested positive for the coronavirus. They have good reasons to think that they caught it from a close contact on Sunday and thus were not infectious on the Saturday. Nonetheless we advise you to take an LFD to stay safe and limit the spread. Best, *- Kinga*
