Munich (dpa / lby) - The Deputy Prime Minister of Bavaria Hubert Aiwanger (Free Voters) wants to allow school children to take lessons without a mask after a negative Corona test.

In a few weeks, in his opinion, it should be: "Tested negative means down with the mask," he said on Thursday at a discussion event with the "Let's open" initiative, which advocates easing the corona measures.

Aiwanger defended the plan to take tests directly in schools.

If you let parents and children do it at home, you have to consider that there are also 20 percent children who are sent to school without breakfast.

Therefore, one must then expect that a double-digit percentage will "serve up without a test in school".

A test at school carries the risk that a child who has tested positive “sits in class with a bright red head” because he is embarrassed about the result, but he still believes that this is the right way to go.

Originally, the free voters were for parenting tests, but could not have prevailed in the coalition.

Aiwanger also defended the so-called Tübiger model, which provides for relaxation for gastronomy, culture and trade with current negative tests.

He wouldn't sign that it failed.

The “Let's open” initiative called for press conferences and rallies in Bavaria on Thursday.

Among others in Munich, Tegernsee, Bad Füssing, Pfaffenhofen, Bad Kissingen, Regensburg, Deggendorf and Mühldorf.

In addition, she had called on supporters to post under # let us open.

Until early Thursday afternoon, however, I kept the response on Twitter very limited.
