Corona tests are to be concentrated more on risk groups and the health care system in the future - less on those returning to travel. Among other things, there are plans for nursing homes and hospitals to be able to make generous use of "rapid antigen tests" so that visitors,
staff and patients can be tested regularly. Spahn had recently spoken of additional tests "in large millions per month". He called it worrying that the number of infections was now rising again among older people.
"Whether you have 10,000 infected 20-year-olds or 10,000 infected 80-year-olds (...) makes a big difference." That is why it is precisely the protection of care facilities and health care facilities that is important in order to minimize the "entry".
