Infection incidence at schools and daycare centres in Jena

- Heinrich-Heine-Grundschule (another learning house with a total of 4 classes)
- Otto-Schott-Gymnasium (several classes)
Tips for testing at schools and day care centres
Due to the increased incidence of infections in schools and day-care centres, we are currently receiving many queries about the testing procedure.
With the resolutions of the conference of prime ministers a change was announced, which provides that with tests after 5 days a quarantine period can be shortened accordingly. At present, this is an announcement and therefore only applies once a corresponding bill has been passed.
For the Specialist Health Service, the guidelines of the Robert Koch Institute, according to which a quarantine period of 14 days applies to Category I contact persons, are therefore still decisive. It is also the case that, due to the large number of schools and kindergartens affected, it is currently no longer possible to provide a test for all those affected in quarantine.
The Specialist Health Service currently only tests those affected in schools and day-care centres when it is necessary to uncover clusters. For example, if children, pupils or teachers have been in the facility for several days with Covid-19 symptoms or have worked for several days before they have undergone a test.
In this context we would like to point out once again that people with cold symptoms - whether small or large - should stay at home.
