Austria implements travel restrictions for high-risk countries

Austria’s government has decided to impose travel restrictions on
32 countries, where the Coronavirus cases are surging, in an effort to stop the further spread of the virus.

Austria has created a “red list” of countries that it considers as high risk. This takes into account the epidemiological situation of infections in that country.
