Dhe district administrator of the Heinsberg district, which is particularly affected by the coronavirus, is considering exemption rules for doctors, so that medical care is ensured despite the new disease. To guarantee this is currently becoming increasingly difficult in the district, District Administrator Stephan Pusch (CDU) emphasized on Monday in one Video message on Facebook, He spoke of a “serious” situation.
More and more practices registered with the health department. According to the regulations of the Robert Koch Institute (RKI), medical personnel must be in quarantine for 14 days after contact with infected people. The question now is whether the group will issue different guidelines if the staff show “no symptoms” and “appropriate protective devices” are taken, according to Pusch.
