Munich - On Tuesday (January 5th) the
federal and state governments met
again on the Corona * pandemic.
Chancellor Angela Merkel * then announced: The lockdown * will be extended and tightened until January 31.
The
Bavarian state parliament
then met
for a special session
on Wednesday
and discussed implementation for the Free State.
Then Prime Minister Markus Söder * stated that the lockdown in Bavaria would initially be extended until January 31.
Corona lockdown in Bavaria "will be extended and deepened": Söder explains new rules
"The
lockdown
will be extended and deepened in some places," said the CSU * boss at a press conference.
The
measures
apply from Monday January 11th.
In concrete terms this means:
Contact reduction:
Meetings are only permitted with a maximum of one person from another household.
Previously, up to five people were allowed.
Counties and cities with a seven-day incidence * of over 200: Tourist day trips over a
radius of 15 kilometers
from the place of residence are prohibited.
Purchases are excluded from this.
Possibility to look after children privately - but only in a regular
contact family.
Company canteens
are closed wherever work processes permit.
The delivery of take-away food and drinks is still permitted.
Consumption on site is not allowed.
Corona lockdown in Bavaria extended: schools remain closed
In addition to large parts of the
trade, the hotel industry and the catering trade,
schools will also
remain closed
in the Corona * crisis
.
Emergency care is to be set up for day-care centers, level 1 to 6 students, special needs students and children with disabilities.
The parents' professional groups are not looked at, as Söder made clear.
The care applies to those who need it.
Distance teaching should be offered in all schools and grades.
However, the signs point to trouble. * Depending on the infection rate, a return to
face-
to-
face teaching
- staggered according to grade - is aimed for.
We play it safe with schools and daycare centers.
There are no face-to-face classes until the end of January, but neither are there any extended holidays.
We rely on distance learning plus emergency care for those who need it.
It's about education and the best possible protection for students and teachers.
