Berlin (dpa / bb) - From the point of view of the Berlin FDP parliamentary group, the corona warning traffic light is no longer up to date.

“Berlin led the way with the corona traffic light solution at the beginning of the pandemic.

Only this system was not adapted to the new developments », criticized FPD parliamentary group leader Sebastian Czaja on Tuesday.

Instead, the FDP advocates a "3-I-Score" in an application to the House of Representatives, a system that should take into account vaccinations, intensive care beds and incidence.

The previous corona warning traffic light takes into account in particular the number of new infections per 100,000 inhabitants within 7 days, the average number of other people infected by an infected person and the utilization of intensive care beds by Covid 19 patients.

The calculation of the incidence must be expanded by the factor of the number of tests in order to be meaningful, demanded the FDP.

In times of self-tests and rapid tests, increasing numbers of infections are only logical because more infections are being identified.

The vaccination status of the population is also not sufficiently taken into account.

Berlin was strong in vaccinating the so-called vulnerable groups.

Because these groups in particular need special medical treatment, it must also be taken into account how many intensive care beds are available.

"This rule of three of the opening must be linked with each other and the Corona traffic light system developed into a" 3-I-Score "," said the Berlier Liberals.

"In the current pandemic situation, the Chancellor and the Prime Minister, including the Senate, are tempted to use the simplest solution - that of a lockdown," criticized the FDP parliamentary group leader Sebastian Czaja.

However, an extended lockdown does not offer Berliners any prospects.

The federal and state governments agreed on an extension of the lockdown until April 18 during deliberations on Tuesday night.

The Senate will discuss the implementation of the resolutions on Tuesday.

The House of Representatives meets on Thursday.
