About 165 of the estimated 600 people who went out to a disco in Enschede, in the Netherlands, last week have contracted corona. This confirms the Municipal Health Service (GGD) of Twente on Sunday.

The first night that discotheque Aspen Valley was allowed to open again has ended with a sizzle. It is now known that about 165 visitors are infected with the corona virus. However, partygoers were required to be able to present a negative test or a vaccination certificate. Moreover, you could only enter with a ticket. It is now speculated that visitors exchanged QR codes with each other in order to get in without a paid ticket.
It is unclear whether all 165 infected people contracted the virus that evening in the disco. It is also not known whether people have also become ill as a result of the infection.
About 600 people were present in Enschede, in the east of the Netherlands, last Saturday. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) is still busy with source and contact research among visitors to Aspen Valley. Everyone who was present is urged to get tested, even if they don’t show any symptoms. In addition, the GGD asks visitors to stay at home until the results are known.
Brussels test event
In our country, 250 people were allowed to participate in a test event in the La Madeleine room in the center of Brussels on Saturday evening. The visitors first had to have a corona test taken. Those who tested negative received a QR code that gave them access to the hall from 10.30 p.m. to 3 a.m. Only a few tested positive. After the dance, a new test followed to evaluate the effectiveness of the protocol. That evaluation will be known in a few days.
