Corona virus in Munich: Many citizens want to enjoy the sun at the weekend

Origin message:

Munich - The corona virus keeps Munich in suspense. The number of newly infected continues to increase every day, a flattening of the curve, which is currently a major goal, is not yet evident. A total of 2,256 cases (as of Sunday, 1.30 p.m.) have now been reported. Despite the strict exit restrictions, countless Munich residents were drawn to the hot spots of the state capital on Saturday in the most beautiful spring weather.

Whether on the Isar , in the English Garden or in one of the many city parks - you would not have known that hardly anything is normal at the moment - you would hardly have noticed. The police therefore had their hands full: the police counted a total of 7,000 controls and 344 violations of the exit restrictions from Saturday 6 a.m. to Sunday 6 a.m. In the coming days, the urge to go outside should not be quite as big - winter reported back in the state capital at the beginning of the week.

The Tram 29 amplifier line is also not in use. Here you should switch to tram lines 18 , 19 , 20 and 21 .

It is explicitly pointed out that these changes are not stored in the electronic information systems.
