Dresden (dpa/sn) - The Saxon Crafts Day hopes that existing corona protection measures will be adjusted soon. As an example, Managing Director Andreas Brzezinski cited the quarantine requirement and isolation at work in the event of corona infections on Wednesday. This requires clear, unambiguous statements. "At the same time, we are counting on a noticeable reduction in bureaucratic requirements for employers in everyday business."
"Statements by leading scientists that there is no longer any talk of a corona pandemic in Germany should also be a signal for Saxon state politics to reconsider the corona protection measures, which were previously limited to April 7, 2023, and to adapt them to the necessary level ahead of time limit," explained Brzezinski. What is needed now is a new normal in dealing with this infection. "We have to learn to live with this virus even without statutory everyday requirements."
Saxony's government wants to decide in January on how to deal with corona regulations. Prime Minister Michael Kretschmer (CDU) recently emphasized that personal responsibility when wearing a mask in local transport is important to him.
Health Minister Petra Köpping (SPD) spoke out in favor of a nationwide uniform regulation of basic corona protection measures such as the obligation to wear masks and the obligation to isolate. A patchwork of measures cannot be conveyed to people, she argued.
