catering industry

is only allowed to offer take-away food.

Unlike in spring, however, many shops remain open.

Corona traffic light at 28 of 96 circles in Bavaria on dark red: Rottal-Inn, Augsburg and Schweinfurt with high numbers

On Monday (October 26th) the Bavarian corona traffic light * showed

dark red

for 28 of 96 districts and urban districts

, because there were recently more than 100 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants within seven days.

In the Rottal-Inn district, the seven-day value * according to the Robert Koch Institute * (RKI) on Tuesday morning was 239. Cities like

Augsburg and Schweinfurt also

have particularly high numbers and are already scratching the

200 mark.

Since today the actual #Lockdown in @RottalInn in #Niederbayern: The current RKI- # incidence value is today with 239.5 (27.10., 00:00) the second highest in Germany.

These measures now apply to the #RottalInn district.

After Berchtesgaden, Rottal-Inn is the second district in the Free State in which public life is again drastically restricted.

In other federal states there are no comparable

measures

to date

.

Entrepreneurs from the Berchtesgadener Land have now

filed

a

lawsuit against the District Office and the Free State of Bavaria

.

In the urgent application to the administrative court in Munich, which the “Passauer Neue Presse” (Tuesday) received, it is argued, among other things, that the measures are not sufficiently justified.

The so-called lockdown is disproportionate.

Söder makes the announcement come true: New Corona rules in Bavaria since Friday (October 23)

Corona lockdown in Berchtesgadener Land: Entrepreneurs complain - "Example made"

According to the media report,

lawyer Frank Starke from

Bad Reichenhall

criticizes the fact that all hotels and restaurants had to close despite their hygiene concepts.

There is no reason to prohibit operation outside.

Bavaria could not

"hold the entire industry in kin"

.

Mild measures to reduce the rising Corona * numbers have not been examined.

Instead, an “example was made”.

Mike Rupin, the chairman of the Reichenhaller Unternehmerforum, initiated the lawsuit according to "PNP".

Behind it are more than 150 entrepreneurs from the district and associations.

Since a person affected has to sue, the

urgent application runs

under the name of Sylvia and Dirk Finsel.

You run a guest house in Bad Reichenhall.

The district administrator of the

Rottal-Inn district

, Michael Fahmüller, sees the proximity to Austria as one of the reasons for the enormously increased corona numbers.

* “You have to say that openly,” he said - even if this connection could not be proven.

In the neighboring country, the measures were not as strict as in Bavaria for a long time.

On Tuesday there is a meeting between Bavaria's State Chancellor

Florian Herrmann

(CSU) and Austria's European Minister Karoline Edtstadler (ÖVP) - the topic could be discussed there.
