It is responsible not to open the shops in Dieburg with the current infection situation, because it is currently not possible to track the contacts of people infected with the coronavirus. The selection of the model cities by the Hessian state government was completely non-transparent.

In an incomprehensible and completely non-transparent process, the Hessian state government selected three model municipalities in Baunatal, Alsfeld and Dieburg before Easter Relaxations of the currently applicable Corona restrictions to try.

The Dieburg model municipality had not applied itself

That with Dieburg A city of all places that was awarded the contract that had not even advertised itself seems rather strange. It could also have been because the member of the state parliament and CDU general secretary Manfred Pentz worked hard for the former district town in his constituency.

If this was actually the case, then the state government’s selection procedure would have been a farce.

In Dieburg on the other hand, the shop doors remain closed. And that decision is in the face of the current one Infection layer understandable and correct.

No contact tracing possible: the health department acts consistently
