BERLIN (Reuters) – German Health Minister Jens Spahn said on Wednesday the coronavirus pandemic was a major test that would have costs, whatever the response.
“The question is where the costs should fall,” Spahn told the Bundestag lower house of parliament, adding that although exponential growth in new cases had stopped, Germany was nowhere near where it should be.
