“Face-to-face lessons up to 50, alternating lessons from 50 and distance learning from 100, we would use as a benchmark,” said the chairman of the German and Bavarian Realschule Teachers Association, Jürgen Böhm, of the German press agency.
A value of 150 new cases per 100,000 inhabitants within seven days could still be discussed. “But we now have to make clear statements about how we will act in the next few weeks and months,” emphasized Böhm. It makes no sense to drive the students tightly packed around the area in buses after the holidays, as long as the infection rates are so high.
“In some federal states one still does not want to understand that there is an infection process in schools and that children, young people and teachers are infected there,” explained Böhm. “This fact is underestimated with an ignorance and arrogance that almost makes you speechless.”
