The saunas, washing rooms and changing rooms in the housing company will be closed as of March 30th to prevent the spread of corona virus (covid-19). The virus spreads by small respiratory droplets and could also be transmitted by touching a contaminated surface. Closing the sauna facilities is a precautionary measure which is meant for protecting the residents’ health and for preventing the virus from spreading through common areas in the housing company. We too have people in vulnerable groups living in the Yläkelo housing company.
It is recommended that the residents keep paying the sauna fees normally for the time being. The excess fees will be reimbursed after the situation has returned back to normal.
