First report, June 18, 1:02 p.m
.: The seven-day incidence * in Bavaria was 12.0 on Friday and has thus decreased by 1.6 points compared to the previous day. A value that was last reached in September. The only exception: the city of Schweinfurt * in Lower Franconia. The 54,000-inhabitant municipality leads the Germany-wide incidence hit list with 52.4. There are still much stricter rules than in the rest of the Free State. Nevertheless, you can actually breathe easy in the Franconian city. Because at the beginning of the week it looked as if Schweinfurt would pass the 100 mark. Then the federal emergency brake would have been applied as the only region in Bavaria - with closings of shops, schools and restaurants including a curfew.
Corona in Bavaria: Schweinfurt has the highest incidence in all of Germany
Fortunately, the value was just missed and the incidence is now falling continuously again.
The Schweinfurters look back on a very eventful history of incidence.
In March, Lord Mayor Sebastian Remelé (CSU) was allowed to appear at Markus Lanz * because Schweinfurt had the lowest incidence in all of Germany at that time.
The reasons: Schweinfurt is a small town, but very big city in terms of the residential structure.
Many residents live in a confined space, explains a spokesman for the health department of the
Süddeutsche Zeitung
.
In addition, if the population is small, outbreaks in a large family immediately skyrocket the incidence.
Now there is hope that the spook will end soon.
Corona in Swabia: Vaccination rate very low - Ministry sends extra doses
One has a completely different problem in Swabia.
There, too, the incidence values are still comparatively high and the vaccination rate is comparatively low in the rest of the Free State.
The state government is therefore now having extra cans delivered to the administrative district.
7,000 extra doses of vaccine will be sent to the districts of Dillingen, Günzburg, Unterallgäu, Lindau and Aichach-Friedberg in the next few weeks, reports the Ministry of Health in a statement.
Corona parties in Augsburg: the city reacts with a ban on alcohol
In Augsburg there are still exuberant Corona parties on the streets and in the squares.
A problem that all major Bavarian cities are currently struggling with.
More on that here shortly.
In Augsburg they reacted and the rules for partying on streets and squares were tightened significantly.
There is a ban on glass bottles in the city center.
In addition, the sale of take-away alcohol at the neuralgic party places is prohibited from 10 p.m.
Corona in Bavaria: Holetschek warns of Delta variant
Health Minister Holetschek, meanwhile, warns of the Delta mutant in Bavaria. A first outbreak in Wolfratshausen startled the authorities. * In this context, an Instagram post by a doctor from Fürth * makes you sit up and take notice. The doctor is appalled by Jens Spahn's statement on the mask requirement.
