Corona Fine Chatter

This little Corona topic came up this morning in Focus news, over Hamburg.

The 'senators' from the Hamburg 'state' have openly said that if you as a parent take your kid into a 'hot' zone (more or less Spain), and come back to Germany with the virus.....then the family goes into quarantine.....then you need to pay a 'fine' for the kid missing school during the quarantine. 

School would typically start in Hamburg on the 6th of August (next week). 

Amount of the fine?  Unknown.

Would it openly be challenged in court?  I would imagine various lawyers hyped up to challenge the authorities.

The thing about this...you could take the kids 40 km's outside of Hamburg's state limits, to some ice cream shop for an hour, and everyone in the family gets ill from that visit....forced then to play quarantine for two weeks at home.  So it doesn't matter if you go to Spain or to some regional ice cream shop....you end up with the same results. 

The threat intention?  It's simply leading back to 'Corona-guilt' which I talked about yesterday in an essay.
