German authorities have accused an American woman of causing a coronavirus outbreak in a Bavarian town after she broke quarantine instructions to go on a bar crawl, local media reported.
On September 8, the unnamed 26-year-old was tested for COVID-19 in the Garmisch-Partenkirchen ski town after she reported symptoms following a vacation to Greece, the Der Tagesspiegel, Der Spiegel, and The Guardian newspapers reported.
The woman, who works at a hotel for members of the US armed forces and their families, was told to self-isolate until her results became available the following morning, The Guardian reported.
However, authorities in the town said the woman ignored the advice and went out to a series of bars that night, the newspapers reported.
She received a positive test the next morning, the outlets said.
