It was a well-intentioned initiative to offer the residents of the Hemelrijck residential care center some distraction. But the visit of the Saint, played by the son of one of the residents, has very serious consequences.

A few days after his performance, the assistant Santa Claus had tested positive. The city council concluded that the Saint visit was irresponsibly organized. Media called the Saint a super diffuser.
