Bavaria: District town distributes free FFP2 masks to households - Söder surprise before the next corona declaration
Update from January 25, 7:51 p.m.:
The Lower Franconian district town of
Bad Kissingen had
free
FFP2 masks
distributed
to all 14,000 households
.
Last weekend, two masks were thrown in each apartment, reports the
dpa
with reference to the municipality.
The
city council provided
the
money
for the 28,000
masks
.
Corona in Bavaria: FFP2 duty now strictly controlled - Bad Kissingen helps out all households
"If you order to be
worn
across
the board when shopping, from my point of view you have to
offer help
across
the board at the start
so that everyone has the chance to
adhere
to the
guidelines
," said
Mayor Dirk Vogel (SPD)
.
Although two masks per household are
not a permanent supply,
the fulfillment of the requirements is made easier for the citizens.
Since January 18th,
FFP2 masks have to be
worn
in shops and in local transport in Bavaria
, a simple
mouth and nose cover
is no longer sufficient.
Citizens over the age of
60
receive the
special masks
nationwide
for a small additional payment in pharmacies.
The
health insurance companies are
currently sending out corresponding
federal
vouchers
to those affected
.
Update from January 25, 5:59 p.m.:
As every week, the
Bavarian cabinet will
also be
advising
on the
Corona crisis
on Tuesday (January 26)
.
This time,
several
experts
are to be added to the
video conference
.
The participation of the Munich
infectious disease specialist Clemens Wendtner is
already confirmed.
The main focus of the discussion will probably be the concern about the spread of the
British mutation of
the
coronavirus
, which is now considered to be
significantly more contagious
than the original variant and has
already been detected
in some
Covid19 cases
in Bavaria.
Prime Minister
Markus Söder,
the newly appointed Health Minister
Klaus Holetschek,
who recently replaced his predecessor Melanie Huml in this office, and Social Affairs Minister
Carolina Trautner
(all
CSU) will then
provide information on the results of the consultations
.
The
reimbursement of daycare fees
could possibly also be
discussed if parents
do not allow
their children to be
looked
after
due to the
corona lockdown
.
Update from January 25, 4:17 p.m.:
According to the Munich Clinic on Monday,
Covid 19 patients
with severe courses
stay
in the
intensive care unit for
more than two weeks on average
.
The length of stay is on average 15.5 days.
For comparison.
For other
intensive care
patients, the length of stay is only four days.
This allows you to see how complex the intensive care care of
Covid 19 patients
is compared to other clinical pictures.
Since the first outbreak almost a year
ago,
around
2000 Covid-19 patients have been
treated
at the Munich Clinic
, around 450 of them in the intensive care unit.
The most severe cases remained in the clinic for up to 60 days or longer.
Meanwhile, the Bavarian police are warning of
vaccine fraudsters
.
As the
BR
reports, the attempted fraud with alleged
vaccination doses is increasing
.
The clear message from the authorities is therefore: "No matter whether at your doorstep, on the phone or on the Internet, do not buy a vaccine." For the time being, vaccine doses will only be given to vaccination centers, mobile vaccination teams and hospitals.
Only in the course of the year should family doctors
be allowed to administer
the injection against
corona
.
Therefore it is also impossible for vaccines to be sold over the Internet or over the telephone.
The police are therefore asking you to report such sales offers.
Corona: Debut in the Bavarian state parliament - Health Minister Holetschek holds government statement
Update from January 25, 2:49 p.m.:
Barely three weeks in office, the new Bavarian Minister of Health
Klaus Holetschek
(CSU) is given a very special honor.
Because the CSU politician will
take over
the role of his state and party leader
Markus Söder *
(CSU)
on Wednesday
.
Because on this day, a
government declaration
on the status of the
corona pandemic
in the Free State is on the agenda
in the Bavarian state parliament
.
So far that was Söder's job, this time Holetschek will step up to the lectern.
In the previous government statements, the Prime Minister had informed parliament about the current
status of the corona pandemic
in the Free State.
There was always massive criticism from the opposition.
Because after the declaration, the parliamentary group leaders of the other parties are allowed to react.
It
is not yet clear
what the
health
minister will focus on in his speech.
But he will probably be able to
hear
the displeasure about the sluggish
vaccination progress
in Bavaria.
Coronavirus in Bavaria: Miesbach district reopens its borders for day trippers
Update from January 25, 11.55 a.m.:
From Tuesday, tourist trips to the
Miesbach district are
allowed again.
The district office announced on Monday.
Previously,
excursions to the region * around Tegernsee and Schliersee were prohibited
by a
general
decree.
This measure came into force because the incidence value exceeded 200.
According to the Robert Koch Institute *, the value is now 70. The
15-kilometer rule
for residents of the district
fell on Saturday
.
The reason for the high value in the region were two outbreaks in care facilities.
20 percent of all reported
corona infections
could be traced back to it.
51 residents and 33 employees in the two homes were infected with the virus.
Other districts in Bavaria such as the
Berchtesgadener Land *
had also imposed an entry ban.
Corona: Violence against police officers in Bavaria is increasing
(Initial report)
Munich
- The mood in Bavaria is heated.
After around a month of hard
lockdown
and almost three months of general

police operations
due to mask refusers and illegal parties.
The officers met with more and more violence.
Corona in Munich: Court puts the right of assembly over protection against infection
Although the
Corona *
numbers
are still too high and the
lockdown
was recently extended to February 14 at the Prime Minister's Conference, numerous
Corona demos
took place
across Bavaria
.
Among others in Nuremberg *, Erlangen, Herzogenaurach and Munich.
In the state capital,
demonstrations
continued well after the
curfew
.
The administrative court agreed to the time frame from 8:00 p.m. to 10:15 p.m. and gave the reason that in this case the right of
assembly
would be placed
above
infection
protection.
However, it confirmed the maximum number of participants of 200 people determined by the district administration department, writes the
Munich police
in a press release.
Originally 1000 people were registered.
In the end, around 300 people came to protest in front of the Bavarian Administrative Court in Munich against the
Corona regulations
such as wearing FFP2 masks * in public transport and in retail.
Opposite them were around 500 police officers and a group of around 35 counter-demonstrators.
In general, the demonstration * was peaceful, the
police
write
.
For the
most
part, people kept their
distance
and
required a mask
.
However, one person has been charged for using marks from unconstitutional organizations.
Corona in Bavaria: Protester attacks police officers
A
demonstration in Lauf an der Pegnitz
(district of Nürnberger Land) was
not quite as peaceful
.
There, three police officers were attacked by a participant after they
checked
a woman without a
mask
.
She should give them a certificate confirming that they have had mouth and nose protection exemptions.
The woman is said to have behaved uncooperatively and the certificate shown appeared dubious to the officers.
"During the subsequent control, about 20 remaining meeting participants showed solidarity with the 52-year-old woman," said the
police
.
A 39-year-old then attacked the emergency services.
He injured three police officers * - one had to be hospitalized - and was then taken away in handcuffs.
The
police
issued numerous advertisements.
In Munich, according to the
police
, there was
an argument in the subway between a 22-year-old and a 28-year-old.
The man had asked the woman
to wear
a
mask
.
She then insulted him and kicked him in the stomach.
When
DB security
staff intervened, they too were attacked.
An employee was injured in the thigh and ankle.
It was then found that the woman had 2.66 per mille of alcohol in her blood.
Corona virus in Bavaria: party guests jump out of the window and injure themselves
There were not only demonstrations in many places over the weekend, but also celebrations despite
Corona restrictions
and a lot of work.
Among other things, the
police
in Aidhausen in Lower Franconia, in Bamberg and in Forchheim in Upper Franconia had to work.
A 28-year-old celebrated her birthday here with eight other guests.
Too bad that she
lives
across from a
police station
.
The officials did not have far to break up the
party
and
impose
several charges for violating the
Infection
Protection Act.
At a celebration in the Swabian
Weißenhorn
(Neu-Ulm district) the situation escalated and two people were injured.
The
police
were called to a party on Sunday night and they could see disco lighting and loud music on the second floor in front of the house.
There were 13 people in the apartment - visibly drunk.
During the subsequent control, the guests behaved increasingly aggressively, so that reinforcements had to be requested, the
police wrote
in a message.
During the inspection two men tried to escape.
So they jumped out the window on the second floor.
In doing so, however, they sustained open fractures in their legs.
They were then taken to the
hospital
.
