With compulsory attendance, masks and tests, school starts again in Hamburg today after the two-week autumn break.
If they are not vaccinated or have fully recovered, those returning from abroad must submit a negative corona test before entering the school premises, as the health authority announced.
Hamburg - On the first day of school, there is still the opportunity to take a quick test on the school premises before classes begin.
Since one must assume an increasing number of infections due to people returning from travel, the students should be tested for corona three instead of two times in the first two weeks.

After around ten months of pandemic-related suspension, the requirement to be present again applies immediately.
So far, parents or adult pupils have been able to decide for themselves whether they or their children take part in lessons in schools or digitally at home.
Despite different demands from the opposition, the mask requirement in classrooms and in all grades remains unchanged, at least for the time being.
