Voluntary free mass testing should accompany planned relaxation steps after closure, such as school opening, and on the other hand help to further reduce the number of infections in preparation for Christmas and beyond. This should allow the population to celebrate Christmas in at least a small circle and avoid another lockdown in the New Year. The Federal Chancellery emphasized that low-income families in particular should benefit from the free trial.
The president of the Chamber of Labor (AK), Renate Anderl, was satisfied after the conversation at the Federal Chancellery. The massive testing is “certainly a very good thing,” he said in an interview with the APA. However, many unanswered questions remain, such as those regarding human resources. It should also be clarified to the AK president whether the tests can also be carried out in-house, for example by a company doctor. The government had also ensured that the tests would be carried out on a voluntary basis and that they would be repeated without delay. Further discussions with the social partners will also take place.
