The number of COVID-19 cases in Switzerland increased dramatically in November, reaching more than 10,000 at the beginning of the month, which forced the cantonal and federal authorities to take strict measures to prevent contagion.

One of the main differences with respect to the wave that occurred in the spring is that the number of hospitalizations has increased significantly, as can be seen in the graph above. We hope that the measures taken by the authorities will help to control this new peak. Of course, everybody has to do their part: #wearamask.
