Update from October 4, 9:15 a.m

.: Bavaria's Prime Minister

Markus Söder

has

criticized

the

federal system of

the Federal Republic.

The

weaknesses became

particularly clear

in the

Corona crisis

.

Söder said in an interview with the German Press Agency: "In some areas, such as

infection protection

, it can make sense for the federal government to have


more competencies."

Interview with Söder: Criticism of federalism in Corona times

As chairman of the

Prime Minister's Conference (MPK)

, Söder had

repeatedly denounced the conflict that had existed in the

corona measures of

the individual

federal states

due to the federal system

, especially at the beginning of the

Corona crisis

.

There were sometimes violent

arguments

, for example with the Prime Minister of North Rhine-Westphalia and candidates for the CDU chairmanship,

Armin Laschet

.

Corona Conferences of the Prime Ministers: "Never before discussed so controversially"

“The MPK took place under

special Corona conditions

.

It has never been so challenging for the federal states to coordinate with the federal government and

find

a

uniform line

, ”said Söder in an interview.

Never before have the country


chiefs'

conferences

lasted as long as in the

Corona crisis,

and never before had they been so controversial, says Söder.

However, despite all the

discrepancies

, one

always came to a good result in the end.

The chairmanship of the MPK changes on October 1st.

The next chairman until October 1, 2021 is now the Governing Mayor of Berlin, Michael Müller.

Söder on the federal system: "Remains a permanent construction site"

Overall,

however

, Söder thinks the

system is

positive - he is still a

staunch federalist, he

stressed.

However, he also cited points of criticism:

“Federalism

remains a permanent construction site.

There are countries that can make stronger decisions on their own.

And then there are others who are having a harder time because of the financial possibilities. ”That is why you always have to check where it makes sense to decide more regionally - or whether national guidelines are needed.

Update from October 3, 9:31 p.m.:

At the

Winzer

elementary school

in the Deggendorf district, the

2nd and 3rd grade students

have to be

in quarantine

.

The reason is the infection of two students.

However, the measures would only apply to the students themselves - parents or siblings do not have to be in quarantine in most cases, according to a press release from the Deggendorf district office.

Each case is assessed individually.

Masks in class too?

District in Bavaria insists on compulsory - and names further restrictions

Update from October 3, 12.26 p.m.:

Because of many

coronavirus infections

in

the Rhön-Grabfeld district

,

mouth and nose protection

must still be

worn

in school lessons there

.

Only the

elementary schools

are excluded

, as the

district office announced

on Friday evening.

On Monday, teaching is to be resumed in all schools.

Throughout Bavaria, pupils from secondary schools can

usually take off

their mask at their

seat

- provided that the

infection

situation

on site allows it.

In addition, all

day care centers

in the district should open

again at the beginning of the week

.

In the case of

sporting events

, the organizer must

show

a

hygiene

plan.

In

clinics

and

care facilities

, patients may only be visited once per day by one person.

Corona Bavaria: mask requirement in lessons?

County insists

In the past few days, the district had

exceeded

the critical mark of 50

new

corona

infections

per 100,000 inhabitants within a week.

On Friday, the State Office for Health and Food Safety reported a value of 51.45.

That is why there are

restrictions

on private celebrations

until October 10th

- only 25 people are allowed to come together in closed rooms instead of the previous maximum of 100.

Update from October 3, 8:52 a.m.:

The Bavarian

police

monitored compliance with the

anti-corona measures

within half a year with more than two million

checks

.

From March 21 to September 20, there were around 2,070,000 police controls to monitor the

corona infection protection regulations

- this is based on a response from the Interior Ministry to a request from the SPD in the state parliament.

The number includes controls of

exit and contact

restrictions

,

the

mask requirement

,

shops

,

meetings

and

restaurants

.

The Ministry of the Interior points out, however, that these are only approximate information - because police

checks on persons are

not fundamentally documented.

Corona controls in Bavaria: Police call a particularly intensive month

However, the overview by the Ministry of the Interior clearly shows how the number of controls has developed over the past few months.

At the height of the Corona crisis with the extensive

exit

restrictions, the most controls were clearly counted - in

April

alone

there were almost 740,000. In July and August, when most of the restrictions were lifted, it was then only slightly above or below 160,000 controls.

Update from October 2, 6.47 p.m

.: Actually, the first

full plenary session

should take place on Thursday (October 8)

, instead the

Bavarian state parliament

now

meets

once with a little more than half of its members.

The

council of elders

decided

in a video conference

due to the high infection rates in

Munich

.

It is difficult to estimate how the numbers in the

state capital will

develop up to next week, said the President of the State Parliament Ilse Aigner (CSU) on Friday.



The Council of Elders - if the

AfD representatives

objected

- preferred to play it safe again, even if the structural requirements for a meeting of all members of parliament are now in place thanks to plexiglass panes and ventilation.

The

plenary will

therefore meet once with 105 members, broken down into the parties in line with the size of the parliamentary group.



So far, a fifth of the MPs have been admitted to the

meetings

.

This should minimize the risk of infection, after all, the MPs and their employees travel from all over Bavaria.

At the next meeting of the Council of Elders on Wednesday, a permanent settlement should then be decided.

Some parliamentary groups are already advocating a traffic light rule, i.e. fixed measures based on the number of cases of infection calculated for 100,000 inhabitants within seven days.

Corona in Bavaria: Markus Söder with a gloomy prognosis - despite hopeful swimmers

Update, 8:36 a.m.:

The Bavarian Prime Minister Markus Söder (CSU) also

spoke

about the current

Corona situation

in an interview with the medical and pharmaceutical industry event "

Health Lab by Burda"

.

The CSU boss said it was conceivable that there could be a vaccine in Germany in the foreseeable future.

Nevertheless,

you have to be prepared for the fact that the current measures will continue for a long time

: “And that means that even then, since not everyone will be vaccinated, everyone can get vaccinated, the rules of distance and the mask, I believe, will remain in place for longer than we think, ”says Söder.

Update from October 2, 7:50 a.m.:

Almost

12,700

students and teachers in Bavaria currently

have to

remain

in quarantine due to corona

.

In addition, 400 schoolchildren and almost 50 teachers

tested positive for the virus

, according to current data from the Ministry of Culture.

According to this, about 0.77 percent of the 1.65 million students

are

currently not in class

due to an

ordered quarantine

, which corresponds to about 11,700 children and adolescents.

Another 0.03 percent, around 400, also had a positive

Covid 19 test

.

For teachers, the values ​​are 0.61 and 0.03 percent.

This means that around 970 of the 155,000 teachers across Bavaria are in quarantine, and around 46 are sick.

Corona in Bavaria: Ten thousand students and teachers in quarantine - schools closed

With a view to larger

quarantine measures

, around 0.54 percent of the classes are currently not in class due to a corresponding order from the health department.

Only two of the more than 6000 schools in the Free State are currently completely closed.

Update from October 1, 10:24 p.m.:

The

Rhön-Grabfeld district

is above the critical mark of 50 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants within a week.

The

district announced

on Thursday evening.

According to the Bavarian State Office for Health and Food Safety, the value is 51.45.

Because of the excess, according to the district, restrictions on the number of guests at private celebrations are to be extended to October 10th instead of 3, it said.

One focus of the newly identified infections is in a dormitory in Mellrichstadt, as reported by Bayerischer Rundfunk, citing the responsible district office.

Corona measures in Bavaria: It costs a wrong name in the restaurant - it is four times as expensive for landlords

Initial report from October 1, 14:44: Munich

- Who in the future in

Bavaria

in the

guest registration

writing down hotel or the guest house for fun or fear of data theft "Mickey Mouse" or "John Doe" for which it is now expensive *.

This was decided by the

state government

today (October 1st)

after

the foundation stone was laid

on Tuesday at the

Prime Minister's

Conference.

There are also changes in the area of

private parties

.

In

Munich

, a

measure

is now

being lifted.

Corona in Bavaria: Violations in the restaurant or hotel are really expensive

In

future, guests and hosts should be careful

when

registering

in a

restaurant

or

hotel

.

Anyone who deliberately enters a false name from tomorrow faces a

fine

of up to

250 euros

.

At the

Prime Minister's Conference

at least 50 euros had been decided.

If the operators do not collect customer data, they have to dig four times as deep into their pockets.

The

state government

provides for a

fine of 1000 euros

for violations.

However, innkeepers

do not have to check whether the

guest lists have

been filled out correctly, only a plausibility check is sufficient.

That gave

State Chancellery Florian Herrmann

(CSU) on Thursday (October 1) in

Munich

known.

It is crucial to stay in control and

avoid

a second

lockdown

.

The virus * always takes up the space that you allow it.

The people's sense of responsibility is very important.

There is a high

risk of infection

,

especially at private parties

, said

Herrmann

.

Speaking of private parties.

The

Cabinet

also announced new

caps

for attending private parties.

With a

7-day incidence *

of 35 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants, only a maximum of

50 people

may participate

in public or rented rooms

.

In private rooms it should only be 25 people.

This rule applies per district or city.

With an

incidence

of 50, the rules still apply that only 25 people are allowed to celebrate together in a public or rented room.

We strongly recommend an

upper limit

of 10 people in private rooms.

Coronavirus in Bavaria: The highest number of cases is now decisive

Because there was always confusion and thus problems in determining the

7-day incidence

value

, the

state government

also decided today that the higher value always applies, according to

Herrmann

.

The incidence figure is calculated by both the

State Office for Health and Food Safety

(LGL) and the

Robert Koch Institute *

.

Since the number

is decisive,

especially for taking certain measures - such as the

upper limit for celebrations

- a decision had to be made now.

The main reason for the different numerical values ​​is the delay in the transmission of data and the different recording periods. 

Corona in the Free State: While the measures are becoming stricter in Bavaria, Munich is loosening its

While the

Free State is tightening

its measures in the fight against the

corona virus *

, the

state capital is

at least partially relaxing its strict rules from last Thursday (September 24).

Since the

incidence value

was exceeded by 50, was in the

center of Munich

at so-called "hotspots"

mask duty

.

This regulation will be lifted from Friday (October 2nd).

The

7-day incidence

is currently

just under 36. On Wednesday, 81 people in

Munich were

infected

with the

coronavirus

.
