Germany plans to offer all citizens rapid coronavirus tests free of charge from March 1, its health minister has said.
Jens Spahn said rapid antigen tests were now sufficiently available on the market to enable local test centres and pharmacies to offer the tests for free.
According to Reuters, the number of new daily infections in Germany has been falling in recent weeks, to 3,856 today, although this was around 480 cases higher than a week ago. The seven-day incidence was 59 cases per 100,000.
