The U.S. consulates in Geneva and Zurich were temporarily closed as a security precaution twice in the past couple of weeks, Feb. 26-28 and March 3-4, because the U.S. Embassy in Bern received information of a threat to American property or buildings in Switzerland. The embassy remained open. Check the following web site for updates on any future closures: http://www.usembassy.ch/Consular/updates/tempclosingge.htm.
