Germany the introduction of mandatory tests for the unvaccinated upon arrival in the country was preparing, but eventually accelerated it due to the deteriorating epidemic situation. From the beginning of August, therefore, everyone who comes to the country must have a negative test if they do not have a certificate of completed vaccination, or proof of covid-19. German test requirements are stricter than the Czech ones. The antigen test is only valid for 24 hours, the PCR test result is 72 hours.
Exceptions from the obligation apply to children under the age of 12, and people who do not plan to stay in Germany for more than 24 hours do not have to have a commuter and a test.

And United States contributes to the growing number of infected mainly Florida. In the state of twenty million, the daily increase exceeded twenty thousand. There were 21,683 positive tests on Saturday, four and a half thousand more than on Friday.
In response to worrying statistics and Tuesday’s update of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommendation that drapes in buildings are desirable even for fully vaccinated people, Florida theme parks are introducing an obligation to cover their noses and mouths. Walt Disney World Park will also require its staff to be vaccinated against covid-19.
However, measures are not taken unconditionally, not even by politicians. Governor Ron DeSantis did not like the introduction of compulsory veil wear, who enforced restrictions on the powers of local officials who would like to enforce such measures, the AP said. DeSantis also on Friday banned schools from making the return of children to the benches conditional on wearing veils.
