Update April 27, 4:08 p.m .: Schools in Bavaria have also been closed for several weeks. The lockdown would have “dramatic effects on the children”, as a doctor now reveals in an exclusive interview.
Update April 27, 2020: Söder misses Laschet after the show with Anne Will: The CSU top in the video section clearly moved away from the North Rhine-Westphalian Prime Minister Armin Laschet (CDU). He had complained on Sunday evening on the ARD that virologists changed their minds every few days. That leads to uncertainty.
Söder said in principle, without naming Laschet by name: “It would be wrong not to listen to virologists, because they have advised us well so far.” Credibility of the population in political decisions.
Update 10:35 p.m .: It continues with an exchange of blows Soccer–Bundesliga.
Greens politician Annalena Baerbock is very much in favor of a Bundesliga opening critical across from. “We gamble away social cohesion because it is deeply unfair to allow the Bundesliga if children cannot even get on the swing,” complains the politician. The Liberal chief Christian Lindner (FDP) on the other hand, sees it not quite as strictly: “All areas that meet similar standards as the Bundesliga now should also be able to be opened.”
The opinions between Baerbock and Lindner differ widely. Karl Lauterbach (SPD) has something else to complain about in the Bundesliga. He see Soccer players in quarantine treated differently than the rest of the population. His adversary of the evening, Armin Laschet (CDU), can only sigh. He admits a mistake in a completely different place – but not with himself.

On the subject School openings: These were not adequately prepared. Not even the hygiene requirements corresponded to appropriate corona standards. But he does not see the blame for his state government. No, the schools and their municipalities are responsible. “For us, that is the responsibility of the school authorities, and that is the respective city.”
In plain text shimmers through: Laschet ordered the schools in North Rhine-Westphalia to be opened without consulting the local authorities. The viewers raged on Twitter.
Laschet is surprised and annoyed that the municipalities in the lockdown did not prepare the schools in NRW for higher hygiene standards
That means: The school openings were decided without feedback beforehand with the municipalities

Laschet is giving the Trump from the Rhine to Anne Will. It’s always the other’s fault. Now the evil virologists, who always find out new things and then adapt their recommendations. Nobody can know anything about it anymore and then you open everything without meaning and understanding

“Anne Will” (ARD): Laschet and Lauterbach in a duel for statements by virologists
Update 10:11 p.m .: Prime Minister of North Rhine-Westphalia Armin Laschet (CDU) and SPD politician Karl Lauterbach put on a showdown for “Anne Will”. The recommendations of the virologists on the decisive factors for the Corona measures changed constantly, criticizes Laschet. This also leads to uncertainty among the population. “Originally, the goal was: we have to prevent Bergamo,” Laschet looks back. “To do this, we doubled intensive capacities and shut down the whole country.” That seemed to have worked well.
Then the period of time Doubling number be decisive. “First it was ten, then ten to 14 days – we have now reached 22 in NRW,” says Laschet. But now the so-called R-factor for the number of reproductions is suddenly decisive.
The indirect accusation that the German scientists are constantly changing their guidelines is apparently hardly bearable for Karl Lauterbach. He leans forward in his chair, shakes his head and tries to interrupt Laschet. But the Prime Minister of North Rhine-Westphalia said himself in rage: “And now I can already see the next factor,” he says indignantly. Because recently there has been talk of the goal of a few hundred new infections per day. The virologists would sometimes have to make clear statements, says Laschet.
There can Lauterbach just disagree. The criteria are different values, all aiming for the same goal. “We were lucky that we didn’t wait for the first one,” said Lauterbach. But it was clear from the start that after the catastrophe was averted, the task was to prevent a second wave. Because as long as there is no immunity, one cannot prevent it. “A second wave must be prevented in Germany,” said the epidemiologist. Because with such a the focus of infection could no longer be traced.
Corona lockdown topic at “Anne Will” (ARD): Lindner wants to “dare a different strategy”
Update 10:05 p.m .: “Angela Merkel doesn’t trust the citizens enough,” asks Anne Will Christina Berndt, Science editor of the Süddeutsche Zeitung. Berndt stands behind the chancellor and evaluates the openings in some federal states as “brisk”. Germany is the frontrunner in the coronavirus pandemic, and this lead should not be squandered.
Update 22:01: FDP chief Christian Lindner makes it clear that he is no longer convinced of the crisis strategy launched at the beginning of the crisis. “Because I think the country is now in a different constitution.” The health system has been strengthened, the population has been responsible for the situation and the lack of protective equipment has been remedied. “So I think we can try a different strategy.”
Also Lindner refers to the Helmholtz scientist in Braunschweig. However, on a different recommendation. The only decisive factor was therefore: “Is there a hygiene concept?” One should not be guided by individual spades. “If you keep your distance, there are masks – only that is decisive,” says Lindner.
“I am not convinced that Mr. Lauterbach’s hotels in Leverkusen have to be closed because there is a Corona outbreak in Passau. We have to act more regionally,” says @c_lindner at #AnneWill. #Corona virus #Corona crisis pic.twitter.com/OmQOVjMc1k

ARD talk “Anne Will” on the corona crisis: Lauterbach – “I would never have opened the schools”
Update 9:54 p.m .: One can see that the mortality rate of Covid 19 patients is increasing Karl Lauterbach (SPD) clearly that he disagrees with Laschet. “The biggest threat is still death from this disease.” With Intensive beds only the worst can be prevented. But even those who are ventilated “die 60 percent” from the consequences of the virus infection, according to Lauterbach. In the United States, the death rate for respiratory patients is as high as 80 percent.
So far nothing has been won. In Germany, only one to two percent have been infected so far. The massive majority of the population is still facing an infection. “I would never have opened the schools before,” says an epidemiologist, referring to the Helmholtz study. And Lauterbach goes one step further: “I would not have opened at all.”
“I would never have opened the schools, the schools are not prepared at all,” says @Karl_Lauterbach at #AnneWill in the discussion about the easing of the #Corona-Activities. #Corona crisis #Corona virus pic.twitter.com/11BVcKy8lh

Update 9:53 p.m .: It’s about life and death. There are ARD moderators Anne Will and NRW Prime Minister Armin Laschet Some. Laschet is considered a strong representative of a holistic easing approach. “I’ve been advocating this for weeks: you have to weigh it up,” says Laschet. The drastic consequences of the corona measures for children have to be taken into account – and the serious economic consequences that massive unemployment entails. “And at the same time, 40 percent – in our North Rhine-Westphalia state as of this afternoon – are free for intensive care places.” One has to at least talk about the fact that this crisis hits the weakest in the population the hardest, says Laschet.
