The Ansbach Administrative Court granted an urgent application from two people today, Friday, and ruled that the convalescent status of the two is still valid for six months and will not be reduced to 90 days. This was announced by a spokesman for the Ansbach administrative court.
The applicants had been infected with the corona virus and received a certificate from the responsible health authority with which they could prove their infection for six months. In the meantime, however, the norm has changed. Accordingly, the recovered status after a corona infection was only valid for 90 days.
Decision only applies to applicants
The two people opposed this reduction from six months to 90 days and were right. As a spokesman for the Ansbach court reported, the judges had doubts that the new regulation was constitutional.
They object to the fact that the new regulation no longer specifies a specific period, but refers to the RKI website with regard to the period. “By referring to the website, the legislature does not make this essential regulation about the convalescent status itself, but leaves it to an official institution,” said court spokesman Timm Waldmann, explaining the chamber’s concerns.
The court therefore already considered the new regulation to be inadmissible on the basis of the procedure. The judges therefore refrain from examining exactly whether the reduction of the convalescent status is unconstitutional overall. An appeal against the decision can now be lodged with the Bavarian Administrative Court in Munich. Initially, however, the court decision only applies to the two applicants
