“It's a low double-digit number of cases.
Four people who live in Hamburg are affected, "said a spokesman for the Hamburg health authority on Monday.
Regional media had previously reported.
The outbreak was noticed because several infected people reported to the Airbus Corona hotline, which was set up especially, according to a company spokesman.
A mass test was then scheduled for around 500 employees in the affected production hall - which brought up further cases.
“The persons and contact persons affected are largely quarantined.
The work had already been organized in cohorts, ”said the health authority.
So far, there has been no knowledge of anomalies or violations of the existing corona rules.
The Airbus spokesman said that the effects of the new corona cases on production are currently being examined.
