Corona in Lower Saxony: Chaos with compulsory tests in schools

+++ 5:59 p.m.:

Since Monday (

From the point of view of the school management association, however, the start was chaotic.

As the

reports, there were problems with the delivery of the tests.

According to this, some schools would have received too many, others too few and some even the wrong test kits.

"This is completely unprofessional," said the association's managing director, Rene Mounajed.

He also criticizes the communication with the Ministry of Culture.

Many school administrators are angry because they were informed far too quickly.

A uniform and nationwide organization was not possible on the start day of the mandatory corona self-tests.

Some schools would only offer emergency care, while others would start teaching without testing the children.

"Everyone does what they think is right here," says Mounajed.

+++ 5.14 p.m.:

The originally general

exit restriction

from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. in the

Hanover

region

for the period April 1 to 12

no longer applies.

On Friday (April 2nd, 2021), the Hanover Administrative Court questioned the legality of the general ruling in an urgent decision and the region had lodged a complaint against it.

As

ndr.de reported

on Wednesday (April 7th, 2021), the Lüneburg Higher Administrative Court declared the ban "probably unlawful".

According to the OVG,

an exit

restriction

in the context of the

corona pandemic

is suitable to a limited extent, but not necessary as long as the state authorities have not fully enforced the existing corona measures.

This dismissed the region's complaint against the decisions of the administrative court.

Corona in Lower Saxony: The RKI warns against hasty interpretations of the number of cases

In Lower Saxony there is no independent city or district with an incidence of over 200.

The

highest seven-day incidence of

181.2 was

calculated

for the city of

Salzgitter

.

The city of Wilhelmshaven has the lowest incidence value of 34.2.

Still is the

wisely interpreting the number of cases

to make

.

That explains the RKI.

In addition, there is the lower number of official tests that flow into this data.

Corona in Lower Saxony: infection situation "worrying"

+++ 2 p.m.:

The corona measures in Lower Saxony, which have also partially led to

exit

restrictions, are necessary.

Health Minister Daniela Behrens emphasized this at the press conference of the crisis team with regard to the infection situation.

This is still "worrying." The number of Covid patients in intensive care units would also tend to increase.

187 people currently have to be ventilated in Lower Saxony, including one child.

The containment of the pandemic is mainly possible through the

corona vaccinations

.

The vaccinations continued over the Easter holidays.

In the past week alone, over 161,000 people were vaccinated.

This means that Lower Saxony is in a good position, explained Behrens.

Corona in Lower Saxony: Vaccinations will start in medical practices from Wednesday

From Wednesday (April 7th, 2021) around 9,000 general practitioners

and specialists will take

part in the vaccination campaign.

The practices should initially receive 20 to a maximum of 50 vaccination doses per week.

The supply runs through the wholesalers of the pharmacies.

In May, the company doctors should then be involved and also administer corona vaccinations.

So-called “safe zones” should show the first ways out of the pandemic in the coming week.

Shops and outdoor restaurants are then allowed to open cautiously in 13 municipalities.

At the same time, digital contact tracking should begin.

Of the 14 originally planned municipalities, there will be no

model project

in the Elbtalaue municipality

, as it cannot guarantee digital contact tracking.

Corona in Lower Saxony: Crisis team informs about the current infection situation

+++ 12.10 p.m.:

The crisis team of the state government in Lower Saxony informs on Tuesday afternoon (April 6th, 2021) about the current corona situation in the state.

From 1 p.m., Minister of Social Affairs and Health Daniela Behrens (SPD) and Deputy Government Spokeswoman Kathrin Riggert will guide the press conference live.

In particular, the current

infection rate

and the

curfews

in several regions are discussed.

But the

vaccination progress

in Lower Saxony and the start of the

corona vaccinations in general practitioners' practices

will probably also be an issue.

These should start from this Tuesday.

In addition, model projects to open shops and outdoor restaurants are to be launched in Lower Saxony in 14 municipalities, according to the

NDR

.

The participating regions continue to maintain a 7-day incidence below 100.

Corona in Lower Saxony: Police protect Stephan Weil's house against "lateral thinkers"

+++ 10.10 a.m.:

A strong police presence has sealed off the home of Lower Saxony's Prime Minister Stephan Weil (SPD) in Hanover on Easter Sunday (04/04/2021) against expected corona demonstrators from the lateral thinker scene.

The access roads to the residential area were closed in the evening.

This is what eyewitnesses reported.

According to the police, only a few suspected corona demonstrators have appeared.

They were sent away by the local officials.

So-called "lateral thinkers" wanted to protest against the Corona measures at Weil's residence.

The assembly authorities had forbidden the march at this location.

She warned that participation in the forbidden gathering would be punished consistently.

Thus, according to the federal corona entry regulation, entry from the Netherlands is only possible with a negative corona test.

The swab for testing may have been taken no later than 48 hours before entry.

Corona in Lower Saxony: relief for cross-border commuters and cross-border commuters

However, Lower Saxony has agreed with the border states and the affected border states on a relief according to the Corona entry regulation.

Cross-border and cross-border commuters as well as the “closest personal environment” only need to be tested twice a week.

If you are entering the country on two consecutive days, only one test is required.

The tests can also be carried out immediately after entry.

The state government has instructed the immediate border municipalities (districts Aurich, Leer, Emsland, Grafschaft Bentheim and the city of Emden) to implement these regulations immediately and to issue a corresponding general decree.

The regulations come into force for the affected regions one day after the municipalities have issued the general decree.

Until then, cross-border commuters are required to test each time they enter the country.

Corona in Lower Saxony: 14 cities and municipalities selected as model municipalities

+++ 3:04 p.m.:

Chancellor Angela Merkel has spoken out against the opening strategies in individual federal states - currently there could even be a tough lockdown after Easter.

Nevertheless, the state of Lower Saxony is sticking to the municipal model projects to open shops, culture and outdoor catering - 14 municipalities will soon be able to get started.

The model municipalities for openings include Hann.Münden and Einbeck, two municipalities from southern Lower Saxony.

The city of Göttingen had also applied for the model project, but was not selected.

These 14 cities and municipalities are included:

  • Aurich

  • Achim

  • Braunschweig

  • Hanseatic city of Buxtehude

  • Cuxhaven

  • Einbeck

  • Emden

  • Hann.

In the selected municipalities, so-called safe zones can now be set up in which the retail trade or outdoor catering can be opened.

In order to gain access, a negative corona test must be available and the app required by the respective municipality for contact tracking must be installed on the mobile phone.

The results of the model projects should point the way to safe zones throughout Lower Saxony.

It is to be tested in the 14 municipalities how the opening of individual areas is possible with a consistent test strategy and in compliance with strict requirements.

“We want to create the basis for later controlled and targeted loosening.

The aim is to get through this pandemic step by step and to enable a certain normalization of our lives ”, says Daniela Behrens, Minister of Social Affairs of Lower Saxony.

Business association dissatisfied with the government's corona course: “ticking time bomb” in bankruptcies

"The fact that the federal government is obviously ignoring the growing insolvency risk of many companies with tunnel vision is now a matter of great concern to me," said the managing director of the Niedersachsenmetall business association, Volker Schmidt, to the "Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung".

During the Corona crisis, he warns of the sharp rise in the number of insolvencies: “By suspending the obligation to file for insolvency, the problem is basically only concealed.

In fact, a time bomb is ticking here, and the risk that it will explode is increasing day by day. "

Schmidt expressed general dissatisfaction with the federal government's corona course and is relying on the municipal model projects for opening up trade that are also planned in Lower Saxony, as reported by the dpa.

He sees this as an opportunity to identify what a prudent easing strategy could look like.

"If Ms. Merkel now wants to put a stop to these model projects, that would be regrettable, but it would fit the chancellor's haphazard actions."

Corona in Lower Saxony: Easter services take place despite the crisis

+++ 12.26 p.m.:

For the second time, the Easter festival must

Corona conditions

.

Last year church services could not be held in the presence - this year they

Although the federal-state conference recommended that there be no attendance at church services, the Catholic and Protestant bishops agreed with the state to make this possible anyway.

As the

German Press Agency (dpa)

reports, prior registration is required for church services in order

to be able

to maintain the necessary

corona intervals

.

Some are therefore also offered digitally, such as in Hildesheim Cathedral.

In addition,

nocturnal exit restrictions

, as in Hanover, for religious gatherings, for example on Easter vigil on the evening of Good Friday and on the morning of Easter Sunday, should be possible as an exception.

Corona in Lower Saxony: Further measures planned at schools

+++ 6:32 p.m.:

Lower Saxony is planning to supplement the existing corona measures in schools.

This should come into force after the Easter holidays.

Education Minister Grant Hendrik Tonne (SPD) announced the introduction of mandatory self-tests at the state press conference in Hanover.

These should be carried out twice a week by both students and teachers and other school staff.

"I believe that we are thus creating another useful building block to increase safety in schools."

Education Minister Grant Hendrik Tonne (SPD)

The aim of the additional measures, which are also to be included in the Corona Ordinance of the State of Lower Saxony, is to break the chains of infection at an early stage.

In the week before the Easter holidays, there was already a first test run, as reported by the NDR.

From Tuesday, April 13th, 2021, the self-tests should then be mandatory.

The test kits are to be made available by the state of Lower Saxony.
