Corona contact ban in Germany: Young men cough at local residents

Incidents from Oberhausen have a particularly shocking effect on everyone who stays at home out of solidarity with others. As reported by RTL, four young people between the ages of 19 and 22 were said to have stood in a parking lot there from Monday to Tuesday - without observing the minimum distance. When residents pointed out the ban on contact, things got even braver: the young people started to cough and made fun of themselves. The fun had a quick end for them: the police called fines. Everyone involved now has a complaint against the neck, according to RTL.de.

Corona in Germany: families ignore the ban on contact

The police in Mainz made it clear on Twitter that the violations of the ban on contact could not be attributed to individual groups of people: "Unreasonableness seems to be more widespread." Here it was found that people largely adhered to the rules at the weekend had, but more violations had to be registered on Tuesday. From all areas:

  • Families who played soccer with children
  • Families in groups on closed playgrounds
  • Skaters on skate tracks

Typical excuses “There is nobody there” or the reproach “You only make it out of harassment” the officials have to listen to.
