The protective measures of COVID-19 in Germany have been further relaxed since March 1. From now on, the compulsory wearing of masks by employees of clinics, hospitals, sanatoriums and residents of sanatoriums will be cancelled; It is no longer necessary to conduct mandatory testing when entering medical institutions.
So far, the mandatory testing requirements for all occasions in Germany have been cancelled. Previously, visitors entering hospitals or sanatoriums need to undergo rapid inspection, and their staff need to conduct rapid inspection within a certain time interval.
Throughout Germany, visitors are still required to wear masks when entering clinics, hospitals and sanatoriums, which will continue until April 7.
The relevant responsible person in Germany said that the further relaxation of the protective measures of COVID-19 was based on the stable infection situation. However, if visiting patients and residents of nursing homes, as well as those seeking medical treatment, they must continue to wear masks. This is aimed at continuing to protect vulnerable groups.
The relevant person in charge of Germany expressed support for the further cancellation of the obligation to wear masks: "The staff of the German medical and health department have sufficient capacity to deal with relevant situations."
It is reported that German federal states have previously cancelled the compulsory isolation obligation of COVID-19 infected persons. In addition, relevant regulations such as COVID-19 protective measures for entry into Germany will also end on April 7.
