The local authority has decided all public events can take place. There are currently no confirmed cases of the coronavirus in Leverkusen. The Bayer 04 management are in constant contact with the football associations, the relevant bodies in the city as well as medical experts.
In addition, Bayer 04 are following the recommendations and advice from the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) and the so-called pandemic plan. For tomorrow's cup game and further fixtures at the BayArena, the "General principles of risk assessment and recommendations for action for large-scale events" from the RKI apply. This can lead to delays in access to the ground and Bayer 04 apologise for that in advance.
In addition, the club has taken other measures to prevent the transmission of viruses. For example, toilets, handrails, door handles and light switches are cleaned and disinfected before, during and after the game.
As there are currently no vaccinations for coronavirus, the club and the Leverkusen health authority recommend taking protective measures as with the case of flu or flu-like infections. That includes regularly washing hands with soap (for at least 30 seconds), not shaking hands, keeping suitable distance from people with colds and not coughing or sneezing over other people. Visitors to the stadium should cough or sneeze into their elbows.
Key information on the new coronavirus (SARS – CoV – 2) is available in German on the City of Leverkusen website.
