Corona: Curfew in Bavaria should be relaxed – “Further careful steps” possible
One thing is clear: the curfew should be relaxed. According to information from the Munich Merkur , the state government is preparing a decision to open the catering trade until 11 p.m. or even midnight in the future. On Tuesday (February 8), the CSU and Free Voters want to pave the way for this. The new regulation could then come into force later this week.
It is still unclear what other rule changes could come. Söder may already be hinting at more this Monday. There are probably “further cautious steps” in loosening possible, it is said in the environment of CSU boss Söder. At the weekend he inquired about the clinic data again in all regions. Tenor: The infections are still extremely high, but there is hardly any impact on the clinics. Occasionally the numbers on the normal wards are increasing, but there is no increase in intensive care patients.

At #Omikron we need a smart policy with caution and hope. We should take further steps to open up culture, sport and trade if the hospital numbers remain stable. The consistent use of FFP2 masks allows the withdrawal of contact restrictions.
