Corona virus in Bavaria: That's how bizarre the corona rules are for Bavarian schools

This question is currently occupying the Bavarian Football Association (see update from 11.10 a.m.).

In an online survey that will be released by Monday (10:00 a.m.) among the around 4,500 member clubs, the BFV now wants to find out how to proceed with the competition game operations, which are prohibited against the background of the corona pandemic.

It is also a question of whether the BFV should become legally active for its more than 1.6 million members.

A Bavarian club has already become legally active:

.

"The fact that the BFV is starting a survey and involving the clubs is very commendable and we will also provide our support here, but it is not certain when a result can be expected", Managing Director Markus Wolf justified his urgent application to the Bavarian Administrative Court in Munich.

Schweinfurt expects an answer within the next two weeks.

The rules would therefore now be tightened: All travelers returning from risk areas must first

Update from September 2, 11.10 a.m.:

The Bavarian Football Association (BFV) asks its member clubs to use the virtual urn.

As the

explained in a press release, it had been decided to “ask all around 4500 member clubs how to deal with the competition game operations that are still prohibited by the state”.

“We have

It was therefore believed that the prerequisites had been created in

"Unfortunately without success," as the BFV announced.

And in every swimming pool and on every beach there are more people than there would be spectators around the playing field at most amateur football games.

Why is this so?

We can't say it, ”the BFV is desperate.

“As things stand today, it can be assumed that the Council of Ministers will not

decide

any further

in the next two weeks

, which - taking into account a lead time that is absolutely necessary for the game - will make amateur football in Bavaria in September impossible.

We do not know how a concert or church service visitor differs from a sports field spectator, which is why our specialist lawyers tell us that a lawsuit against the unequal treatment of amateur football by the

Control Ordinance would have a good chance of success, ”continues Koch.

However, legal recourse is the last resort, "that means we want to keep talking to the state government and continue to hope for a quick solution for amateur football in our favor."

Corona in Bavaria: daycare is running - three-stage plan is based on a seven-day incidence

This value measures the number of new infections reported within seven days per 100,000 inhabitants.

If the value is below 35 across the city, daycare will run without restrictions.

However, this hurdle has already been overcome in the last few days, which is why stage two of the concept is currently being used.

For daycare centers this means:

explains Julia Mayer, spokeswoman for the Department for Education and Sport.

The regulation has met with criticism.

The

Bundestag member Dieter Janecek (Greens) describes them

The members of the “Families in the Bavarian Crisis” initiative see it similarly.

In a statement it says: “Especially in early childhood education,

Preventing these elementary building blocks of child learning must not be the purpose of a hygiene plan. "

In addition,

This should make it easier to understand the path of infection.

How long this condition lasts depends on how the numbers develop.

"If the seven-day incidence is falling, the prerequisite for withdrawing level two is that the incidence rate is stable for at least seven days below the limit value," explains Julia Mayer.

“As soon as this situation occurs, the daycare providers will be informed by the health department.” On Tuesday the value fell below 35 for the first time.

It is now at 34.59 - no reason to breathe a sigh of relief.

He said that at the press conference after the cabinet meeting in Munich.

The situation could change "in no time" at any time.

"You always have to be clear about the fact that an unknown virus is fatal in case of doubt - and we have seen that."

The Bavarian government is therefore trying to keep the virus under control as far as possible, “so that it is not at the mercy of an exponential development again, which will inevitably lead to the health system coming under pressure, including the severe ones Illnesses get worse ”.

Then there would also be cases in the older generation and in institutions for the elderly, deaths would increase and “very difficult” ethical decisions would have to be made - for example, who should
