In the course of the federal-state meeting on January 7, 2022, tougher corona rules were decided. Does this also affect shopping in discount stores and supermarkets?
Berlin – Politics are taking hold again. As part of the Corona summit on Friday, January 7, 2022, the federal and state governments have adopted tougher corona rules. This particularly affects the country’s gastronomic establishments. Because from now on, the 2G-plus regulation will apply in cafes and restaurants. Accordingly, only vaccinated and convalescent people with an additional negative corona test have access. Does this corona rule possibly also apply in a weakened form in the supermarkets in a timely manner?
You can find out here how the current Corona rules are in discounters and supermarkets and whether the 2G regulation may be introduced here. *
The fact is: Both the FFP2 mask requirement and the applicable distance rules remain in place in discounters and supermarkets such as Aldi, Edeka, Lidl and Kaufland *. There is no getting around it, especially against the background of the rapid spread of the Omikron variant *. Apart from that, the introduction of 2G in the supermarket is repeatedly discussed loudly *. The operators of supermarket chains argue, however, that unvaccinated people should not be excluded from the so-called “basic supplies” *. The financial aspect also plays a role here, the loss of sales is too high. Meanwhile, an expert is worried about the cancer patients in the country, for whom it could not be a condition to shop in supermarkets, in which the unvaccinated also get access. * Kreiszeitung.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA.
