The German Football Association has received the support of Health Minister Jens Spahn, who today supported her plan to resume the "Bundesliga" season in the next ten days, despite the presence of new infections from the Coruna virus among the players.
"The main program (of the League League) is logical, and it can serve as a model for other professional sports," Spahen told Radio Deutschlandfunk. "But we have to see how it goes."
The League hopes to get the green light on Wednesday for the resumption of the season on May 15, when Chancellor Angela Merkel will meet with the 16 German district leaders in a video call. However, the season's resumption plan became the focus of doubt on Monday after the tests of the players, the coaches and the crews, revealed that 10 people were infected with the "Covid-19" virus, including three from the first division team, Colin.
The League League revealed Monday that out of 1724 examinations that were conducted in the 36 clubs (18 in each grade), 10 were positive, without revealing any details about the location of the cases and even the identity of the injured people.
According to the laws in force in Germany, every person who has been in contact with a positive situation has to adhere to a fourteen-day isolation period. The German Football Association team has set hygiene rules for approval in the event of a resumption of the season, including periodic tests in all 36 clubs for the first and second classes, in a move supported by a group of influential politicians. Sbahn and the Minister of the Interior and Sports have given Hohr Suehfer his approval of the strict guidelines, as is the case for the heads of government of the provinces of Bavaria and North Rhine-Westphalia.
