“We therefore assume that the plausible compliance with the requirements will be checked by the municipalities as part of the commissioning”according to the ministry.
In the opinion of immunologist Falk, however, this is apparently done insufficiently. Professional training is not difficult at all, she says: “An information event and practice three times”, that’s usually enough.
Immunologist Falk: Swabs are always in the throat and nose
“It’s best to always use a cotton swab to swab your throat first and then your nose. Because the viruses appear more frequently here and there.”so Falk.
Some rapid corona tests are only approved for the nose and others only for the mouth. The only difference is the cotton swab.
“The test doesn’t care whether the stick was previously in the throat or in the nose”said Falk. “With all the tests that you can buy like this, it’s no problem at all if you first swab the throat and then the right and left nose.”
It’s been a week since the Corona symptoms started at Tim Wardrobe. With a negative test from a test center, he could now test himself free. After his frustrating experiences with the test center staff, he prefers to leave it alone.
The “Current Hour” on WDR television also reported on this topic on June 20, 2022.
