After the most recent summit, it is clear: Especially over the Easter period, Bavaria has another tough day ahead of it.

Here is an overview of the new corona rules for the Free State.

Munich

- On Monday, the federal and state governments discussed the further course of the corona crisis for a total of 15 hours.

Then it was clear: The lockdown will be extended until April 18th.

After much back and forth, Chancellor Merkel and the Prime Ministers - including Söder - were able to agree on further resolutions.

Corona rules in Bavaria: Super lockdown over Easter - including "rest days"

"We are probably living in the most dangerous phase of the pandemic ever," emphasized Söder in the nightly press conference.

Due to the spread of the corona mutations, he spoke of a completely new pandemic that the Free State is currently facing.

How exactly things will continue for Bavaria, and whether the Free State may even face a tightened special route, Söder announced live in a press conference on Tuesday.

Here is an overview of the current status of the new corona rules:

The top priority is to get the rising corona numbers under control again.

A super lockdown is therefore planned for Easter.

In the Easter week, from April 1st to 5th, life should therefore be shut down completely.

In addition to the Easter holidays, Maundy Thursday and Easter Saturday are also to become “rest days” with a “

no-gathering ban

”.

These "rest days" should be analogous to normal public holidays.

Specifically, this means: facilities that are allowed to be open on rest days are also allowed to be open on these days.

In addition, there are no

Easter services

or religious gatherings with an audience in attendance.

On Easter Saturday only "grocery stores in the narrow sense" are allowed to open.

Corona rules in Bavaria: Tightened emergency brake from an incidence of 100 - Stricter rules for vacationers

If the corona incidence rises to over 100 in districts or cities, a tightened

emergency brake

comes

into force, for example in the form of a mask requirement in the private sector.

In addition,

exit restrictions

and tightened

contact restrictions

threaten

.

The Bavarian cabinet will determine the details on Tuesday.

In the future, there will also be new hurdles for

vacationers

.

From now on, airlines should test all return travelers for Corona before departure.

A general test obligation for air travelers to Germany is to be introduced.

From 10 a.m., Prime Minister Markus Söder will consult with the Bavarian cabinet on how the resolutions of the Corona summit will be implemented in the Free State.

In order to announce the results, Söder then appears in front of the press at 12 noon.
