Update from December 11th, 6:23 p.m
.: In the fight against the corona pandemic, the state government has now
completely banned
alcohol consumption in public
.
This is based on a
change in the Corona regulation
.
This took effect on Friday.
“The consumption of alcohol in public spaces is prohibited,” the rules now say.
In the original version, alcohol consumption was forbidden in particular “on the public traffic areas of the inner cities” - but the “specifically affected locations” had to be determined by the responsible district administrative authorities.
This no longer
applies
-
the ban on alcohol in public now automatically applies everywhere.
"Experience to date has shown that a ban on consumption that is limited to certain, locally defined areas and places leads to evasive behavior and is therefore not sufficient to effectively contain the risk of infection," says the reason for the change.
In the current infection situation, a more extensive and directly applicable ban on alcohol consumption in public spaces is necessary in order to curb the spread of the virus.
Corona in Bavaria: Government is tightening exit restrictions and bans
In addition, the Bavarian state government has tightened the regulations on nationwide exit restrictions and night curfews in
hotspots
(incidence over 200).
Initially it was the case that the “own” apartment could only be left if there were specific valid reasons.
Now the word “own” has been deleted at the crucial points.
This makes it clear that it is "a ban on staying in public space and that it is not mandatory to stay in your own apartment, but can also be in another apartment," says the reason for the change.
Specifically, according to the State Chancellery, for example, with so-called curfews in hotspots at night, you can stay overnight at another household - you can still meet a household outside of your own.
But you can no longer visit someone just in time before 9 p.m. and then go home or drive from there at night.
