Stuttgart (dpa / lsw) - After the federal government, the green-black state government is now also announcing free rapid tests for the corona virus for all people without symptoms.

This was announced by a government spokesman on Wednesday in Stuttgart after a top-level meeting in the State Ministry.

As possible reasons for a test, he mentioned the planned visit to the grandma if you work in a job with many contacts or look after someone at home.

The country's four million rapid tests would be made available for this purpose.

Another seven million rapid tests of the new generation are to be bought from the country, in which the test stick only has to be inserted a few centimeters into the nose.

The subject will be the subject of the cabinet meeting next Tuesday.

More precise details were initially unclear.

The use of corona rapid tests is also to be expanded nationwide from March 1st.
