The Corona crisis team discussed new measures against the coronavirus outbreak in the Munich City Hall.

New rules have been announced for the state capital.

  • The new coronavirus * infections in

    Munich

    continue to rise above the critical threshold.

  • Even

    Prime Minister

    Markus Söder * (CSU *) holds further

    measures

    necessary.

  • New rules have been announced for Munich.

6:57 p.m

.: Markus Söder (CSU) announced on Monday that a

mask would be required

for public spaces in

Corona hotspots

where

distance

rules cannot be adhered to (see update from 10:05 a.m.).

The cabinet will probably decide this on Tuesday.

Corresponding measures have already been announced

for

Munich

today (see update from 12.03 p.m.).

The seven-day incidence for the state capital is 56.13.

Söder therefore declared: "Munich is too big to just ignore it now and let it go."

Würzburg clearly exceeds the corona limit value: the outbreak can be attributed to nightlife

Würzburg

exceeds the limit value even more clearly.

There the value is 61.78.

Stricter rules have been in effect in the region for a few days now than in some other areas of Bavaria.

From 11 p.m. onwards,

inns

in the city center are no longer allowed to serve alcohol.

Along the

Main

, drinking beer, wine and the like in the open air is prohibited from 10 p.m.

The State Office for Health and Food Safety (LGL) attributes the high numbers there to the nightlife, for example to the outbreak in a shisha bar.

The

municipalities must decide in

which public places the

mask requirement should

then apply, as Söder emphasized on Monday.

The cabinet still has to talk about the exact times.

In any case, Söder pleaded for a mask requirement from the evening hours: "From a certain time onwards, in any case," he said in front of a video switch of the

CSU board.

Today's meeting was not a pleasant one.

Reiter apologized to the Munich citizens right at the beginning: "There will be restrictions for ALL Munich residents," he says: "Three more rules apply from the middle of the week," says Mayor Reiter.

“Only five people or two households or relatives in a straight line are allowed to meet.” In a straight line means: parents with their children.

Second: "At special occasion-related private 

celebrations

 , only 25 people are allowed indoors and 50 in the fresh air".

Third: “There will be a mask requirement.

We have decided to initially do this selectively ”.

What is meant are the Viktualienmarkt, Marienplatz and Sendlinger Straße, "regardless of whether I sit, walk."

Dieter Reiter live on the current Corona situation in Munich

You can follow the video above in the article, here we tick the most important news.

10:28 a.m.:

The press conference with Markus Söder is over.

We summarize the most important news about the upcoming corona measures here.

Markus Söder is currently concerned about two things: the exuberant partying in public places, most recently observed in Munich on the sidelines of the “Wirtshaus-Wiesn”, and the Supercup soccer game with FC Bayern in Budapest.

So Söder wants to discuss the following measures with his cabinet tomorrow:

Corona in Bavaria and Munich: We are facing these measures

  • A mask requirement in public places, especially in Munich, where the 7-day incidence per 100,000 inhabitants is known to be well above the critical 50.

  • An extension of the alcohol bans in public places, especially on weekends.

  • Stricter restrictions on private parties, for example a significant reduction in the number of participants.

  • New quarantine regulations for sports and cultural trips.

    Söder has his sights set on Bayern fans who want to travel en masse to the Supercup in Budapest on September 30th (7-day incidence well over 100).

    How exactly this should work will probably be discussed in the cabinet tomorrow.

    But the Bayern fans will have to be prepared for a quarantine after their return.

10:05

a.m

.:

What emerges: Söder currently considers a mask requirement and a ban on alcohol in public places to be the best means in the fight against Corona and a second wave *.

"For the next weekend we have to get in a good and clean position." Tomorrow the cabinet will meet on the subject.

Corona in Bavaria - Söder: Schools must definitely remain open

10:04 am

:

Another

word about schools: “The worst thing for me would be if we had to make decisions about schools and daycare centers again and again.

That must be prevented. "

10.02 a.m.:

As far as the new measures for Munich are concerned, Markus Söder is in constant contact with Mayor Reiter.

"We speak every day."

Corona in Bavaria: Christmas markets only if the 7-day incidence remains below 50

9:54 a.m.:

Söder does not want to commit to the mask requirement in public places.

The 7-day incidence is important.

If this rises above 50, there must be further measures.

These could also differ from region to region.

He could imagine Christmas markets with an incidence below 50 with strict conditions.

With a value over 50, however, Söder sees little chance.

Söder talks about "disturbing images" from Munich

9:50 am

: Regarding the pictures from the "Wirtshaus-Wiesn" on Saturday in Munich, Söder says: "There were beautiful pictures, but also very disturbing ones."

Corona in Munich: Söder wants new quarantine regulation for fans because of the Supercup in Budapest

9.50 a.m.:

Because of the Supercup, Söder will propose to the Bavarian cabinet to adjust the quarantine regulation.

Budapest has an incidence in the 100 range.

When asked Söder, the idea is to issue an extra quarantine regulation for sports or cultural trips.

Corona in Munich-Söder: Group events will get smaller - only in the private sector

Corona in Bavaria: Markus Söder calls for a mask to be worn in public places

First report: September 21, 9.44 a.m .: Munich

-

Bavaria's Prime Minister Markus Söder

has announced that a

mask will be required

in

public places in Munich

where the distance rules cannot be observed.

He has very mixed feelings, for example when he looks at the pictures of wild Wiesn substitute celebrations * like the weekend at the Viktualienmarkt.

Therefore, he wanted to advise the city about mouth and nose protection, said the CSU boss on Monday the radio station B5 current.

“I don't want to take the joy away from anyone,” said Söder.

But given the high number of infections in Munich, joy and reason should better go together.

In addition, the city's health department is to be supported by the Bundeswehr in the future.

"We will ask the Bundeswehr to provide 100 people to improve tracking."

Corona in Munich - Söder: "Munich has very high numbers, too high numbers."

On Sunday, the corona numbers in Munich reached

55.6 new cases per 100,000 inhabitants

in one week.

In this context, Söder spoke of the strong recklessness of some.

"Munich has very high numbers, too high numbers."

Söder on the corona crisis in Bavaria: "The problem is private parties"

Not professionally organized events worried him.

"The problem is the private parties," he said.

“If reason doesn't help, then it has to be controlled.” The aim is to enable schools and daycare centers to continue operating throughout Bavaria and to protect the economy from further restrictions.
