Ahlbeck (dpa / mv) - The police in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania do not check all travelers from the high incidence area of Poland for the required negative corona test.
According to information from the German Press Agency, checkpoints are only temporarily set up at the border crossings in Ahlbeck, Garz and Linken.
A spokeswoman for the Ministry of the Interior confirmed on request on Tuesday that border controls around the clock are currently not intended.
In addition, the Anklam police station used their patrols for random checks, travelers would have to constantly expect them.
The Parliamentary State Secretary for Western Pomerania, Patrick Dahlemann (SPD), pointed out on request that fines could be imposed if there were no corona tests.
A large number of visitors to the two new rapid test centers in Ahlbeck and Linken shows that many Polish citizens adhere to the entry rules.
The rapid test center in Linken extended its opening hours on Tuesday.
The federal government had classified Poland as a high incidence area due to the sharp increase in the number of corona infections.
Since Sunday, entry from the neighboring country has only been allowed with a negative corona test.
