Everyone involved in nursing homes will continue to receive unlimited tests: visitors, employees, residents and external service providers. As well as sanatoriums, hospitals, rescue services, elementary teachers and cared for children. Where they get the tests from and how the free test is not deducted from their own free quota is also still open. The problem: “You can’t enter the reason for a test anywhere. It is also not possible to check whether the test is really taken for a visit to the home,” said Peter Hacker’s spokesman.
“1450 is completely overloaded”
Also excluded from the quota are PCR tests for free testing and for symptoms. If you suspect corona, you need to call 1450 again. There, the suspected case is entered in the EMS, the “suspect” is assigned to a test center and can do a free PCR test. “1450 is completely overloaded again. And the symptoms cannot be checked on the phone either,” says the hacker spokesman. According to reports, the federal government hopes that people will tell the truth.
