Corona in Bavaria: Strict exit restrictions in Nuremberg - several districts are following suit
Nuremberg was the first major city in the Free State to
impose
additional strict
exit
restrictions
in the partial lockdown
.
“We also have the problem that we cannot find a hotspot at this point,” said Mayor Marcus König, justifying the strict regulations.
"We tend to have a diffuse infection process here in our city."
Because of their high number of
corona infections
, the districts of Passau (346.7), Regen (356.0), Freyung-Grafenau (391.4) and the independent city of Schwabach (344.1) are following suit.
In the affected districts and in the city of Passau, the same
corona regulations
largely apply to hospitals, old people's and nursing homes and schools
.
For example, a weekly corona rapid test is now mandatory for employees in homes.
And exercising is only allowed outside alone, with people from your own household or another person from another household.
Update from December 1, 1:20 p.m.:
The
Bavarian cabinet
met on Tuesday for its regular meeting in Munich.
Today's date was primarily about the
Corona situation in the Free State
.
Afterwards, State Chancellery boss
Florian Herrmann
(CSU) and Minister of Health
Melanie Huml
(CSU) held a press conference.
"The situation in Bavaria is still worrying,"
Herrmann
opened
his speech.
Only the
exponential growth
has since stopped.
The number of cases is still at a high level.
Numerous people continue to die of
Covid-19
.
"Every half an hour in Bavaria someone dies of the
corona virus,
" the minister made clear.
Therefore, the focus of the
state government is
particularly on
protecting
risk groups
.
This should
happen
especially in
retirement homes
.
Rapid
tests
and
FFP2 masks
for visitors will soon be part of the standard equipment here,
Herrmann
continues.
And the
head of the State Chancellery also made it clear again
on the subject of small
border traffic
.
You cannot prevent people from
going
skiing
to Austria or Switzerland.
But he once again urged everyone to consider whether trips abroad are currently necessary.
"It now depends on the solidarity of the citizens."
Health Minister
Huml
has not yet been
able to
say
when
a vaccine will be
available
in
Bavaria
.
The possible drugs are still in the
approval
phase
.
“The licensing authorities don't have to start from scratch,” the minister added.
During the test phase in the past few months, interim results were repeatedly checked.
It should therefore not be too long before vaccinations can be given.
But there will be
no
compulsory vaccination
, stressed Huml again.

in
Nuremberg
falls below the 300 mark for at least one week at a time.

to be able to take better
action against the still greatly increased
number of cases

should
apply
in Bavaria in the future
if the value of the
7-day incidence
exceeds the mark of 300 newly infected people Exceeds 100,000 inhabitants.
This

The
total
incidence for Bavaria is 175.1.
(As of November 30th).
Corona in Bavaria: Local exit restrictions possible - Söder warns of further measures
"Due to the current
infection
situation,
we have
sharpened it again: From an
incidence
of 300, the responsible
district administrative
authority must act
in agreement with the respective government and take a series of stricter measures," said State Secretary for Health Klaus Holetschek (CSU) of the German Press Agency Munich.
In addition to exit
restrictions
, a
ban
on

.
The new regulation is much stricter than the previous one.
It is now valid, with reservation, until December 20th.
Over the
holidays
, the
rules
in the Free State, as in the rest of the Federal Republic, are
relaxed somewhat.
However, Prime Minister Söder

not rule out
tougher measures

in
Passau,
Lower Bavaria, is
still precarious, Lord Mayor
Jürgen Dupper
(SPD) gave a press conference on Monday evening.
"We still have
a very stressful situation
in
Passau,
" the mayor began his speech.
A
curfew
and various other rules have
been in effect in the three rivers city since last Friday (November 27)
.
The aim is to try to come down from the current
incidence of
579.5
.
With this value, the city is currently at the top in Germany.
For the time being, the numbers rose again because
series tests were carried out on the weekend
, especially in
retirement homes

continued
Dupper
.

Covid-19
.
There are a total of 390 active cases in the city, the OB continued.
Originally it was planned to keep the stricter rules up to December 4th.
A relief is hardly imaginable due to the current development, so
Dupper
.
The
city's crisis team will
meet
again
on Thursday
to discuss the
pandemic situation
.
"It looks like the measures are being extended for good reason," said the town hall chief.
Dupper
also made a request to the
state government
.
In addition to the
Corona aid
for the hotel and restaurant industry and for cultural businesses, there should
also be aid for retailers
in special
hotspot regions such as Passau
.

shopping is restricted
due to the
curfew
, many shops suffer from greater losses in sales.

a shadow over the coming year.
In Munich, Bavaria's
Minister of Culture Michael Piazolo

They will now take place on May 12, 2021.
"We want all high school graduates to find fair conditions - in the exams themselves and in preparation."
“The
grammar schools
start their final exams earlier than the other types of schools.
That is why
quarantine
measures
and longer phases with
distance teaching are
particularly noticeable
in the Abitur
classes
and can lead to deadline pressure, ”emphasized
Piazolo
.
In order to provide relief here, the exam date has been postponed.
If the
infection
situation worsens further, the
final exams
could be postponed again.
Then the other types of schools could also be affected.

(Free Voters) and Gerhard Stadler, District President of Lower Bavaria of the Bavarian Farmers' Association (BBV),
want to find out
about the situation
on site

Corona: Bavaria's super hotspot now with the highest incidence value in Germany
Update from November 30, 8:05 a.m.:
The
7-day incidence
in the Bavarian
corona hotspot Passau has
increased again.
The
Robert Koch Institute
now gives this as
576.9
(as of November 30,

highest
7-day incidence in
Germany
.

curfew
in the city since Saturday
.
The apartment may only be left with a valid reason.
Update from November 29th, 10:23 p.m.:
Bavaria's Prime Minister
Markus Söder
has criticized the fact that some citizens repeatedly looked for loopholes in the applicable regulations in the corona pandemic.
"My impression is that a lot of people are always looking for a loophole, for a parallel discussion," said the CSU boss on Sunday evening on the
ARD program "Anne Will"
.
"If we now concentrate on how we can lower the numbers as best as possible and apply it as consistently as we can, then I think
Christmas will be relaxed
." New Year's Eve and skiing activities caused him more worry than Christmas anyway.
Corona: Söder on "Anne Will" (ARD): Tightening is possible
In the next two weeks we will see how the numbers develop.
A partial all-clear could be given.
There is no longer any exponential upward growth.
Conversely, however, there is also no downward movement.
"In the next two weeks we will have to do another update on how we stand, and in
case of doubt,
make
extending and deepening
more in-depth
."
Update from November 29th, 6:50 p.m.:
The
Marburger Bund
, the association of employed and civil servant doctors in Germany, in Bavaria
is sounding the alarm
.
The increasing number of corona cases is bringing the hospitals in Bavaria to their limit.
The association derives this from its own survey, as
BR24
reports.
According to the survey, more than half of
clinicians
stated that they had to
restrict
other treatments
due to the large number of
corona patients
.
The phased plan for hospital care announced by the state government must be implemented.
It also states that the
standard care
can no longer be maintained if the
number of cases
does not decrease.

.
The Robert Koch Institute (
RKI
) introduced the new color a few days ago, for
regions
where the value rises to over 500.
Now only the district of Hildburghausen in the south of Thuringia has an even higher
incidence value of
579.1
.

Corona in Bavaria: Passau now "pink" - extreme increase in infection not yet to be explained
On Saturday the value in Passau was 440.
Where the sudden
sharp increase
comes from is currently unclear, as the Passauer Neue Presse (PNP) reports.
The
district
belonging to Passau
is also one of the
Corona hotspots
throughout Bavaria and Germany
.
The current incidence
value there is 378.9.
The corona situation in Passau has been barely
controllable
for a few days
.
A strict
curfew
had
therefore already been
imposed in the city.
It has been in effect since yesterday, Saturday (November 28th).
Residents are now only allowed
to
leave
their homes with
good reason
.
Initial report from November 28, 2020: Munich
- The
corona situation in Bavaria
has
barely relaxed
after the four-week
partial lockdown
in November.
The number of cases no longer increases exponentially, but remains at a high level.
Therefore, at a meeting of the heads of state with the Chancellor in Berlin, an agreement was reached
to extend
the
measures until Christmas
.
In addition, further tightening was decided - especially for cities and counties with very high
incidence values
.
The
Lower Bavarian city of Passau * is one of
these
so-called
super hotspots
.
Corona in Bavaria: Exit restrictions have been in effect in Passau since Saturday
On Friday (November 27), Passau's Lord Mayor
Jürgen Dupper
(SPD) appeared in public to talk about the high number of Corona * cases in his city.
As the
Passauer Neue Presse
reports, he started his speech with a little gallows humor.
“We actually like to be at the front in
Bavaria
, this time we can't be proud of it, of course.” What was meant was the high
7-day incidence value
.
According to the
Robert Koch Institute
(RKI), it is 439.4 (as of November 28, 12 a.m.).
This puts the three-river city in second place in Germany - behind the Thuringian district of Hildburghausen (595).
In order to
further contain
the
Corona *
infection
in Passau *, special restrictions apply from Saturday (November 28).
One of the rules enacted in a general decree is an
exit restriction
.
"Leaving the apartment is only allowed with a valid reason," said
OB Dupper
.
That means: going to the doctor, buying groceries and visiting relatives are allowed, but must be plausible and understandable.
The police * should also check this.
In addition, from the 7th grade onwards, students take
alternating lessons
(with the exception of the final
classes
).
These and many other measures should initially apply until Friday, December 4th.
If the
corona incidence has
not fallen to at least 300
by then
, the restrictions will be extended, said
Dupper
.
Coronavirus in Bavaria: Söder irritates with Trump comparison and condemns lateral thinkers
On Friday,
Bavaria's Prime Minister Markus Söder
(CSU)
defended
the extension of the
corona measures
in a government statement * before the
Bavarian state parliament
.
With the words “extend, deepen, help”, the country manager summarized the coming period up to December 20th.
He
didn't have any good news,
especially for the
ski tourism industry
.
Mountain railways and lifts should remain closed for the time being.
“Ischgl is not forgotten,” says Söder.
And
New Year's Eve
should also be celebrated with caution.
“No big parties,” demands the
CSU boss
.
In his speech,
Söder
also referred to the lateral thinker Jana from Kassel, who
compared
herself to
Sophie Scholl
in a speech a few days ago
.
Such a comparison is outrageous and embarrassing, the head of the country condemned the statements of the woman.
In general, the
lateral thinking movement is
a "toxic concoction of fake news, hatred, fear and intolerance".
However,
Söder
caused a brief irritation
with a Trump comparison *.
When it came to the new
mask requirement in parking lots
, he said: "Even Donald Trump * wears a mask from time to time, one or the other could take an example."
You can now exactly
which
corona rules apply
until the Christmas holidays read in our overview article *.
