Hanover (dpa / lni) - The measures to contain the corona virus are to be linked to a number of new criteria, according to the FDP in the Lower Saxony state parliament.

In addition to the seven-day value of new infections and the number of reproductions, the vaccination progress, the severity of the disease progression and the distribution in the age groups should also be considered, according to an exit strategy that the Liberals presented on Monday.

The goal is better traceability and acceptance of the specifications.

It is particularly important that the R value does not exceed 1.0 for several days, said parliamentary group leader Stefan Birkner.

Then an infected person would infect more than one other person on average.

However, the FDP intends to exclude large outbreaks in homes that are locally limited from the seven-day value of new infections per


100,000 inhabitants.

It is “necessary that local infection events in old people's and nursing homes are deducted from the incidence and reported separately,” says the paper.

The state government made up of the SPD and CDU has developed a step-by-step plan that essentially ties the relaxation and tightening of the corona rules to the seven-day value and the R value.

The FDP called for a debate in the state parliament before the step-by-step plan comes into force.
