In Germany, schools were opened in early August and since the first surveys there is no significant worsening in the spread of Covid 19.
The increase in infections is mainly due to vacation returns with 1,500 new cases per day; As for schools, in Berlin until August 21 there were 37 schools affected by Covid (4.5% of the 825 present in the capital), according to the Berliner Zeitung, which also reports 7 cases of kindergartens affected by the 2700 infection.
Despite these numbers, the closures have been very few: it is preferred to quarantine classes and teachers. In North Rhine-Westphalia, there were 31 schools affected by partial closures already three days after the reopening. Six of the 1,795 schools in Hesse have been closed and the percentage of children in quarantine would be 0.3%, according to the Frankfurter Rundschau.
According to the European Center for Disease Control, the reopening “is not associated with a significant increase in the transmission of the virus.”
