Munich today – news from October 13th, 2021 – Munich

If you ask around at the corona test stations in this city, you will find many exceptions. “I’m currently breastfeeding and have only had one vaccination,” says one. “I am pregnant and have not yet been vaccinated,” says another. And a young woman, who also prefers to put on her FFP2 mask outside, says: “I had contact with an infected person.”

You can all be tested for Corona free of charge – although the rapid tests have actually been chargeable since Monday. But there is a long list of exceptions. Rule of thumb: It is best to inform yourself before visiting a test center whether you have to pay or not – and if not, what proof you have to provide.

But since Monday there have also been those who pay, told me the spokesman for Johanniter, who, among other things, operate a test station across from the wholesale market hall. They take 15 euros. (Incidentally: It is perhaps the most beautiful test site in all of Munich, with gold-plated stucco on the ceilings.) Suddenly they had to collect cash as an aid organization, says the spokesman – an unfamiliar task.

It is now also unusual for the many citizens who have to adapt: ​​If they just want to know whether they have been infected, regardless of whether they have been vaccinated or not, they have to take money into their hands.
