There were eleven positive corona cases as of Tuesday morning in the Ried district. Eight of them concern the squad of the Innviertel football Bundesliga club SV Ried. The confirmed SV-Ried managing director Rainer Wllinger Tuesday morning on request. “Of course that is anything but pleasant, the players are of course in quarantine. Today we will test all of them again. Hopefully there will be no further positive cases,” said Wllinger. The football Bundesliga has a precise prevention concept for such cases.
It is not the first cluster at SV Ried, in October 2020 six players tested positive for Corona. A few days before the start of training for Rieder Fuball on Monday, June 14th, 15 players were vaccinated. A vaccination protection is not given after this short time. In principle, every player is free to be vaccinated, said Wllinger. Basically, however, there is a recommendation.
Coach Andreas Heraf will have to improvise during training in the coming days, it is not known which players are in quarantine. A test match against Liefering is planned for Friday, and the training camp in Windischgarsten is scheduled to start next Monday. It is still open whether the development game and the training camp can take place as planned.
“We are now waiting for the test results from today and will analyze the situation with the coaching team. We informed Liefering,” says Wllinger.
