Corona virus - return to normal situation
Update 31.03.22: The Federal Council has ended the special situation under the COVID-19 regulation as of April 1st, 2022. This means that the last measures on the national level will also be lifted: the obligation for infected persons to self-isolate as well as the mask obligation in public transport. However, as the number of positive cases is still high and the course of the pandemic is uncertain due to the lifting of the protective measures, the government council of the canton of Bern has decided to continue the obligation to wear masks in hospitals as well as in old people's and nursing homes in the health sector until the end of April 2022.
For the University of Bern, the return to the normal situation means that the University's COVID crisis management team will cease its operations.
