Böhm asked the state ministers of culture: “Now a clear, manageable period of at least one week for comprehensive school closings must be set in order to give the healthcare system room for maneuver. This period can be extended weekly as required and in coordination with the health authorities of the countries and regions. ”Although children and adolescents were not among the most vulnerable groups, transmission of the Sars-CoV-2 virus could endanger family members, the elderly and the sick .

Corona virus in Bavaria: number of infected people increases - dozens of schools remain closed

Update from 11.32 a.m . : Previously heat-free - today Corona holidays. A number of children will later remember that their classes in 2020 were down for days or even weeks because of a virus. In Germany, the following usually applies: if there is a confirmed case in an educational institution, it is temporarily closed. An overview of closed schools in Bavaria can be found below.

The first data analyzes show that, unlike flu, children at Covid-19 are probably not significant drivers of the spread of the virus in the community. For Sars-CoV-2, it is anticipated that children will rarely develop clear symptoms, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). It can therefore also be assumed that children mainly contract adults - adults, however, hardly any children.

"School closures can make sense if hygiene measures cannot be guaranteed," says virologist Ulrike Protzer from the Technical University (TUM) and the Helmholtz Zentrum München. "But you have to consider the enormous impact on the economy and above all on the health system, when the young parents can no longer go to work but have to look after their children."
