Children are exempt from compulsory masks before their sixth birthday, and persons who can credibly show that it is unreasonable for them to wear a mask due to a disability or for other health reasons. They must show this immediately, normally by showing a written medical certificate (an original - not a copy), which must contain the full name, birthday and concrete details of why the person concerned is freed from the obligation to wear a mask.
A free weekly testing service is available to all members of the University. Self-tests "for use by laypersons" are used for this purpose.
Since self-tests no longer have to be performed under supervision, the offer of supervised self-tests in the UR computer center (RZ CIP1) has been discontinued. The UR's free self-tests will now only be available for pick-up. For organizational reasons, the self-tests will not be issued to individuals, but only as collective orders to faculties or chairs/working groups, central institutions and cf. Further distribution then takes place within these organizational units.
Please send your advance orders by e-mail to praxisveranstaltung-corona@ur.de.
