The prerequisites include compliance with hygiene and distance rules, an obligation to follow up contacts and a Test obligation for guests. Specifically, this means that everyone is on the same day before going to the restaurant in one of the test centers, for example in Hanau, have to have them tested. Self-tests done at home are not enough.
