Customers who visited the Doris nightclub in Tampere on the night of Thursday 20 to Friday 21 August may have been exposed to the coronavirus, according to a health alert released on Sunday by the Tampere University Hospital (TAYS).
The reason for the alert is that one of the clients who was at the premises that night between 23:00 and 1:00 has been diagnosed with Covid-19 infection, TAYS reported through its Twitter account.
