Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania plays it safe: Anyone entering from a corona risk area in the future must be tested twice. Once - as before - after arrival. An additional time five to seven days later. Only when the second test result is negative can self-isolation be declared ended.

The reason for this tightened measure is the incubation period, said the Prime Minister. A single corona test could be obsolete just a few days later. Because this is only a snapshot anyway. The new regulation should apply from Thursday. The state assumes all costs for the tests, such as Reisevor9.de reported.
