Bremen now also wants to test daycare children for Corona twice a week. The tests are voluntary, said a spokeswoman for the education authority. 250,000 self-tests should arrive in Bremen by the end of the week and then be distributed to the facilities as quickly as possible.

The daycare children should be tested at home by their parents. “If you fail to do this, the tests can, as an exception, be carried out in the respective childcare facility.” The tests are financed from the Bremen Fund, from which 952,000 euros were approved.

In Bremen, since the beginning of the week, all students who want to take part in face-to-face classes should test themselves for Corona twice a week. After a transition phase, a test obligation will apply from next Monday. Those who have not been tested have to switch to distance lessons.
