"As soon as we recognize that the
infection rate is
going
down, the step-by-step plan will have to be followed backwards," said
Lower Saxony's
Minister of Economic Affairs and Deputy Prime Minister Bernd Althusmann (CDU) of the German Press Agency in Hanover: New infections per 100,000 inhabitants nationwide in seven days, preferably well below 35. "
Corona: If the incidence continues to decrease, there should be rapid easing
If this goal is achieved,
easing measures
should be started quickly,
for example for the
catering
and
hotel industries
.
Althusmann said
zoos, animal and amusement parks, beauty salons and perhaps gyms
could also be reopened
in the first easing stage
.
“If we manage to do that in January, then we will have a clear relaxation at Easter and the companies can then take a deep breath," said Althusmann.
It is about a “smart perspective for spring 2021”.
There are also specific plans for schools in Lower Saxony for lessons in 2021.
Corona: Lower Saxony has started setting up vaccination centers
The vaccination strategy is also making progress in Lower Saxony.
The
counties and cities
have, according to the German press agency with the
construction of the vaccination centers
started.
On Saturday (December 5th, 2020) the construction of a station started in an empty supermarket in Wilhelmshaven.
All districts and urban districts had until a few days ago
to report
possible locations for vaccination centers
to the country.
According to the Lower Saxony Ministry of the Interior, coordination with the individual districts is now "under high pressure".
For example, in addition to
vacant commercial properties
,
town halls
,
sports halls
and
former schools are also considered
.
In Hanover, the vaccinations are to take place on the exhibition grounds.
Since it is not yet possible to predict when the
vaccines will be
available, it is still unclear when the respective
vaccination stations
will be able to start operating.
However,
mobile distributions of the vaccines should
take place first and then the centers can start their work.
