Continued cold and wet weather also dampened interest in the Oktoberfest on Monday.

There was little activity on the streets of the festival area - most of them were drawn into the festival tents.

The Oktoberfest medical station has had to take care of fewer patients than at the last Oktoberfest in 2019, before the corona pandemic.

The Aich ambulance announced on Monday that it was particularly quiet on Sunday due to the weather.

The majority of patients were between 16 and 25 years old.

Blister plasters were particularly in demand.

One reason was probably the kilometer-long traditional costume and riflemen's procession through the city.

In addition, the helpers had to carry a patient with too much alcohol to the ward on Sunday, the young American could no longer walk.

On Saturday, the first alcohol victim was also a young woman.

The teams treated almost 620 patients on Saturday and Sunday – in 2019 there were almost 560 on Saturday alone.

The mobile computer tomograph (CT), which is being used for the first time at a folk festival, has already been used around 30 times.

CTs were done primarily for head injuries to rule out a life-threatening cerebral hemorrhage and to spare the injured person hospitalization.

Only five percent of the patients in the medical station had to go to the clinic.
