During the Christmas vacations, the student ID will no longer suffice as proof of testing on buses and trains as of Thursday, December 23rd. The reason is the contagious Omikron variant of the Corona virus. This means that unvaccinated or unrecovered students between the ages of 6 and 17 will need a current negative rapid test on public transportation. They will also need a rapid test from Monday, December 27th, for visits to cinemas or restaurants. This was announced by the Ministry of Culture. The rule for minors will be in effect until Monday, Jan. 10th. After the vacations, 6- to 17-year-old students will then be tested again regularly at school. Students who are of age must already bring proof of testing.
