From this Thursday (November 11th), stricter corona rules apply in Hesse.
They mainly affect people who are neither vaccinated nor recently survived an infection with the coronavirus.
A rapid antigen test is no longer sufficient for areas or facilities in which the 3G rule applies and thus only vaccinated, convalescent or tested people have access.

Changing lanes on motorways is a tricky moment - and sometimes it crashes.
But the question of guilt is not always easy to resolve.
Especially when there was no direct contact.
Verdict: No liability in the event of a motorway accident with a domino effect
The woman, who was employed by a larger opera orchestra, had refused to be tested as part of the hygiene concept there before participating in rehearsals or performances.
Intervention in physical integrity?
The musician justified the rejection with the fact that the test meant a considerable interference with the physical integrity and carried the risk of injuries, which are particularly problematic for players of wind instruments.
But the court did not follow suit.
The LAG found that the obligation to test is proportionate and not an inadmissible interference.
Especially when working as a flautist, the other orchestra members could not be protected in any other way.
In addition, the collective agreement entitled the employer to demand the test.
As a result, he did not have to employ the woman or pay her any remuneration as long as she was not allowed to participate in rehearsals and performances.
