Brandenburg's community budget: 150,000 euros approved for new projects!
In Brandenburg an der Havel, nine new projects from the 2025/26 community budget were approved this week, which mobilize almost 150,000 euros in funding. This initiative not only blooms the feeling of community, but also gives up numerous ideas from the citizens. Particularly noteworthy is the planned augmented reality project to celebrate the city's 1100th anniversary, which offers exciting perspectives for cultural design. But not everything runs smoothly. Out of 40 submitted proposals, 31 ideas were rejected, which shows that the participation of the residents is not a self -run.

The Bornavirus is a big topic that is currently causing a conversation in the region. A tragic death in Bavaria has let the alarm bells ring and led to increased attention in Brandenburg and Potsdam-Mittelmark, where the authority does not exclude a possible distribution of the virus.

The bornavirus is transmitted mainly by the Feldspitzmaus, which acts as a typical virus carrier. However, infection with this virus is not easy to understand. It is believed that it can be transmitted via contact with excretions or through contaminated foods and water. Experts warn that although the disease rarely occurs compared to other infections, it can have fatal consequences. In Germany, 14 known cases have been registered with encephalitis in the past two decades, many of which could be associated with the Borna virus.

The symptoms range from headaches to fever to neurological problems and can lead to a dramatic course of the disease. In the case of unclear symptoms such as acute meningoencephalitis, experts recommend also thinking about a possible borna infection. Buyers of pets and user owners are advised to take precautionary measures to avoid spreading the virus.
