SedanFederal Health Minister Jens Spahn (CDU) has defended the new Corona strategy with more focused testing. “In a phase like the current one, first you have to test those who have symptoms, those who belong to the risk group or who work in the nursing and health sector. And someone who has no symptoms and is otherwise a contact person does not have to be tested, “he explained Sunday night on the ARD program” Report from Berlin. ” But as soon as someone shows symptoms, of course, it is a matter of contacting the doctor.
Spahn noted that this also applies to users of the Corona warning app who receive a red risk warning because they had more intense contact with an infected person. Since October it has been clearly regulated that in this case not only the health service and the health department, but also resident doctors can perform the test. But that is only possible within the scope of available capabilities. At the moment, they are so busy that it must be said that anyone without symptoms should stay home in quarantine.
