Berlin (dpa / bb) - Before the beginning of the gradual school opening next Monday after more than two months of corona-related break, the CDU complained about a "mask chaos".
Party leader Kai Wegner as well as the CDU parliamentary group in the House of Representatives called for teachers and students to wear FFP2 or medical masks on Friday.
At the same time, they expressed their surprise that at the moment only everyday masks are required in schools.
The education policy spokesman for the CDU parliamentary group, Dirk Stettner, spoke of irresponsible carelessness.
"With this, Education Senator Sandra Scheeres risks new exponential infections in view of the increasing spread of corona mutations.
But that is exactly what we need to prevent. "
A spokesman for the education administration pointed out that the Senate has provided hundreds of thousands of FFP2 and medical masks to schools.
For employees and schoolchildren alike, there would initially be enough of these masks available free of charge.
Nationwide, there is no obligation to specifically use this type of mask in schools.

Until some time ago, many people often wore everyday masks they had sewn themselves to protect themselves from infection with the coronavirus.
In the meantime, FFP2 or medical masks are required in local public transport or in shops because, according to scientists, they provide better protection.
