There is currently a message circulating in the design of a digital NEWS page.
The warning is false news.
At the moment we are receiving a few requests for a report in the form of a sharepic that is shared on social media platforms. This is about the following warning:

In connection with the coronavirus, the Cologne Health Department is looking for people who were on a night flight in the Cologne club last Saturday. According to the Senate Health Administration, a man who has since tested positive for the coronavirus was staying there that evening.
“If you were a guest at the 'Nachtflug' club in Cologne on Saturday, March 7th, 2020, please stay at home,” appealed the health administration. Club visitors this evening are asked to call the statutory health insurance emergency service on 116 117. This is available around the clock.

The report from March 9, 2020 is false news.
The “Nachtflug” club explains the facts via Facebook:
+++ IMPORTANT MESSAGE +++

There is NO confirmed case of Covid-19 on the night flight ❗
Unfortunately, someone here has indulged in some unfunny fun. So please don’t worry about the “article”. Of course, we also deal with the topic of Corona virus responsibly, which is why we would like to ask you NOT to call the statutory health insurance emergency service because of the “article”, because they have their hands full with actual cases.
