I don't live in Germany, but they started doing 160,000 per week and now they've ramped up to 500,000 tests per week.

That's extensive testing. Not sure about your situation, but from official numbers at least, they are doing more tests than everyone else in Europe.

i just checked, it really looks like they changed it...you can now get tested if a doctor deems it necessary, which he is allowed to if you're showing corvid-19 relevant symptoms.

good to know, and thanks for pointing it out!
