The corona situation in Germany is currently relaxed. That is why Schleswig-Holstein’s Prime Minister Günther is calling for the quarantine rules to be adjusted.
Schleswig-Holstein’s Prime Minister Daniel Günther has called for a significant relaxation of the quarantine rules for people infected with corona. “Currently, infected people have to be isolated for five days, even without symptoms. My suggestion: only those who have symptoms stay at home,” said the CDU politician to the “Bild” newspaper. There is currently no need for “rules that unsettle people, but rather those that protect vulnerable groups.”
If the situation deteriorates, there must be an opportunity to intervene quickly. “The current laws are sufficient for this,” said Günther.
