The Liberals are calling for a nationwide end to the corona isolation requirement

The FDP has spoken out in favor of a nationwide end to the obligation to isolate people infected with the corona virus. A discussion should be initiated about this, said the health policy spokesman for the FDP parliamentary group, Andrew Ullmann, on Saturday on Deutschlandfunk. Various indicators indicated that Germany is now in the final phase of the pandemic.

Ullmann referred to the progress made in vaccines and drugs against Covid-19, and the number of severe courses of the disease in the clinics was also very low. That is why Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg and Schleswig-Holstein would have done the right thing by ending the obligation to isolate. The inspection by the authorities no longer worked anyway, said the FDP politician, who is also an infectiologist.

In addition to the three federal states, Hesse also wants to end the isolation requirement. Federal Minister of Health Karl Lauterbach (SPD) had criticized the lifting of the obligation to isolate and referred to the need to protect vulnerable groups.

The German Association of Towns and Municipalities warned of a “patchwork” and called for nationwide uniform corona regulations. Managing Director Gerd Landsberg told the "Rheinische Post" on Saturday: "Citizens must be clearly informed which regulations apply in which areas." He called on the federal and state governments to agree on possible relaxation and existing rules.

The President of the German District Association, Reinhard Sager, welcomed the easing in several federal states. "We support the countries with regard to the end of the isolation requirement and relaxation of the mask requirement," said Sager of the "Rheinische Post". "In the current situation, it seems reasonable to make things easier, especially since good experiences have already been made in numerous other European countries."
