Update from May 6, 6:40 a.m.:

As of Thursday, those who are fully vaccinated against the coronavirus or who have completely recovered from it have more freedom in Bavaria again.

The planned easements, which were also anchored in the Bavarian Corona Ordinance, affect several areas at the same time.

The rule is that those who have recovered have to prove their infection from the contagious period using a PCR test.

This must be at least 28 days old and there must be no more symptoms.

Fully vaccinated people can claim their vaccination protection from 14 days after the 2nd vaccination.

In the absence of a digital vaccination certificate, they can currently only prove it with their yellow vaccination certificate on paper.

Corona in Bavaria: This is changing for those who have been vaccinated and those who have recovered

Fully vaccinated and convalescent people are exempted from the test requirement, which is valid for retail shops or a visit to a museum, for example.

If the seven-day incidence where the affected people live is above the limit value of 100, the night curfew is also no longer applicable, which means that vaccinated and convalescent people can stay outside their home at any time and without good reason.

Obligation to test, exit, quarantine: Great relaxation in the Free State for vaccinated and convalescent people

Fully vaccinated and convalescents will no longer count towards the maximum number of contacts allowed.

This means

that they can meet more people again regardless of the regional seven-day incidence.

The amended regulation also provides relief for quarantine at home after contact with people who can be proven to have been infected with the coronavirus.

This does not apply to those who have been vaccinated or who have recovered.

Corona in the Free State: Incident in large parts continues to descend

In Bavaria, meanwhile, the incidence has fallen further and, according to the RKI (as of May 6, 3.09 a.m.), is 123.8 (previous day 131.1). The incidence is currently highest in the Franconian district of Coburg with 302, followed by the city of Schweinfurt with 295.7. The city of Passau currently has the lowest incidence with 34.1, followed by the district of Neustadt an der Waldnaab with 44.5. The state capital Munich, which fell below the incidence limit of 100 the day before, is still below that today, at 98.3.

Update from May 5, 7:22 p.m.:

The Bavarian district of Hof has reached a corona vaccination rate of more than 40 percent. The proportion of people vaccinated at least once in the total population was last at 43.59 percent, as the district office announced on Wednesday. The three-river city of Passau * has a similarly high vaccination rate. There, the proportion of first vaccinations on Wednesday was 46.21 percent of the population, as the city announced. Like the district of Hof, the border town in Lower Bavaria was at times one of the regions with the highest new corona infections in the country.

With a view to the entire Free State, the vaccination rate on Wednesday was 30.0 percent, according to the Robert Koch Institute. So far, 7.8 percent of people in the Free State have had complete vaccination protection.

Caritas boss calls for corona vaccinations for socially disadvantaged people

According to Caritas Bavaria, socially disadvantaged population groups should be given preference in the corona vaccination *.

This applies in particular if the prioritization is soon to fall as announced.

"What was true before the pandemic is slowly becoming explosive: people who live in precarious circumstances are exposed to a significantly increased risk of infection," emphasized the state director of the Catholic welfare association, Bernhard Piendl, on Wednesday in Munich.

Socio-economic framework conditions would have a significant impact on people's health.

"This often results in cramped living conditions or language barriers due to a migration background," explained Piendl.

"Vaccinations must not depend on social status and network, or whether you have a doctor among friends." Migrants in particular need special address and support.

For example, there is great uncertainty in the communal accommodation for asylum seekers.

The news brought relief to tourism companies - but many questions remain unanswered.

"Of course, the joy that it starts again prevails," said the Bavarian Dehoga regional manager, Thomas Geppert on Wednesday.

In view of the still unclear guidelines for companies, however, one understands that “there is a little bit of uncertainty”.

Whitsun leave possible: Announcement by the Söder government triggers “great hectic”

After the announcement by the Bavarian state government, there is now "a lot of hectic", said the tourism director of the city of Füssen in Allgäu, Stefan Fredlmeier.

The telephones ran “warm to hot”, but not predominantly with booking requests, but with questions such as: When can you expect an opening?

Which requirements do guests have to comply with?

What if the seven-day incidence rises above 100 while on vacation?

Jörg Hentschel, spokesman for the Franconian Tourism Association, also emphasized that many questions were still open. He would therefore like to see clarity soon about the specific rules for vacationing in Bavaria: “The earlier this is communicated, the better.” The spokeswoman for the Chiemgau Tourism Association, Claudia Kreier, said, “Our businesses have now learned to accept this uncertainty live and react flexibly. "

Under these conditions there should also be opening possibilities for “special tourist infrastructures”.

Economics minister Hubert Aiwanger (Free Voters) named "leisure facilities from cable cars to coaches" as possible examples.

According to a spokesman for the Ministry of Health, the specific requirements, such as test obligations and hygiene concepts, are to be decided at a cabinet meeting on Monday.
