Update, 11.55 a.m.: New campaign with Pumuckl

Bavaria's Minister of Health, Klaus Holetschek, is starting a new publicity campaign aimed at helping young children and their parents face the challenges posed by the corona pandemic.

The focus is on the popular children's book character Pumuckl, which is aimed at families in magazine booklets.

Information about offers of help is also offered.

“In addition to the threat posed by the virus, the pandemic has also placed great stress on mental health.

This also applies to children in particular, ”explains the minister.

“For example, they had to cope with the fact that they could only see their friends to a limited extent.

There were also challenges for the parents, for example through homeschooling or emergency care in day-care centers. "

The minister added: “Our aim is to make families aware of the issue and at the same time to give them support. In this way, the Pumuckl figure can support the little ones in a playful way to understand their own feelings. "

Bavaria's Family Minister Carolina Trautner adds: “Corona demanded a lot from us all. Families and children were particularly affected. The loss of social contact has put a strain on all of our wellbeing. Even the smallest ones do not leave their mark on such cuts. ”The 'MucklMAG' is therefore aimed directly at children and teaches them the subject of“ feelings ”in a playful way. In particular, it is about addressing and processing negative feelings. In the accompanying parents' booklet, contact points and offers of help for families in stressful situations are also listed. “It is important to me that all families receive the support they need in an uncomplicated manner,” she says.

Competent, low-threshold help and support - especially for families - in mental emergencies, for example, are offered by the crisis services, which have been available across Bavaria since July 1, around the clock on the free central number 0800/6553000.

Further information on the range of crisis services can be found on the website www.krisendienste.bayern.

In addition, the parents' booklet also contains expert interviews on media consumption and the mental health of children.

The magazine was designed in cooperation with an agency.

The contents of the booklet were conceived, accompanied and corrected by psychologists and medical professionals, in collaboration with the author of the Pumuckl story.


Both versions of the “MucklMAG” are available free of charge in pharmacies and paediatricians, or can be downloaded in other languages ​​from the website www.muckl-mag.de and / or ordered free of charge.

Further information, help and contact points for everything to do with mental health can also be found on the website of the State Ministry of Health and Care.

Update, September 6, 11:05 a.m.: Youth digital study 2021

Two out of three German adolescents changed their shopping behavior in the corona pandemic. 49 percent of them have bought more online since the crisis broke out due to a lack of alternatives. In 2020 it was 35 percent. This emerges from the representative digital study for young people from Postbank. The younger the respondents are, the more likely they are to expand their online purchases during the crisis. While 55 percent of 16-year-olds went shopping online more often, it was 48 percent for 17-year-olds and 44 percent for 18-year-olds.

"Generation Z grew up with the Internet and has no reservations about online offers," says Thomas Brosch, Head of Digital Sales at Postbank. “Due to the lockdown time with closed stores, online shopping has become even more of the new normal for digital natives. In the future, this target group should primarily be reached online. "


Not only do teenagers shop more online, they also spend significantly more there. In 2021, their monthly expenses for online shopping rose by an average of 32 percent to 102 euros compared to the previous year. The older the respondents, the looser their money is. For example, 16-year-olds spend an average of 60 euros a month for online purchases, for 17-year-olds it is 95 euros and for 18-year-olds 147 euros. In a gender comparison, girls are somewhat more frugal. While they spend an average of 95 euros a month on Amazon, Zalando & Co., boys spend 109 euros.

The teenagers' awareness of sustainability has also increased. After all, 7 percent of them say that they pay more attention to ecologically and socially acceptable products when shopping than before Corona. This is especially true when buying clothes and shoes online. For these goods, 69 percent attach importance to criteria such as environmentally friendly production, climate-neutral shipping or avoidance of plastic. That is 8 percentage points more than in the previous year. This is followed by cosmetics, where more than every second person pays attention to ecological and social production. When buying fashionable accessories such as watches, 53 percent think about it, compared to 11 percentage points in the previous year. Regardless of the product category, the 18-year-olds take sustainability very seriously.

But the 16 to 18 year olds are not only committed to sustainability when shopping online.

Before the corona pandemic, 29 percent of them had already taken part in events organized by the climate movement Fridays for Future (FFF), and 11 percent even several times.

In addition, there are 29 percent who have not yet participated but are committed to climate protection in other ways.

When the infection process allows it again, 53 percent of those surveyed can imagine participating in major FFF events.

Friday, September 3rd, 11:10 am: First vaccination in the first week of school

Bavaria's Minister of Health, Klaus Holetschek, together with top representatives of Bavarian medical associations, has called on children and adolescents from the age of twelve to be vaccinated against Corona before the end of the holiday. "There is still enough time to start the first week of school with the first vaccination," says the minister. “This can also reduce the risk of infection for classmates. We have enough vaccine in Bavaria and a lot of opportunities for corona vaccination. "

The minister added: “The recent increase in incidences, especially among children and adolescents, is not good news, especially with a view to the end of the holidays. It is also clear: Young people can also be affected by Long-Covid - and should protect themselves against it with a vaccination. " -Year-olds at around 130 and for the 16 to 19-year-olds around 192.

“Vaccinations also make things more normal. Those who have been fully vaccinated no longer have to be tested in school and, as a rule, no longer have to be in quarantine if they have close contact with infected classmates or friends, ”explains Holetschek. "And: Access to the cinema, swimming pool or bouldering hall is easiest with a full vaccination."

Currently (as of September 3), 29.8 percent of 12 to 17-year-olds in Bavaria are first vaccinated and 21.9 percent are second vaccinated.

"So far, 159,000 vaccinations against Covid-19 have been carried out in Bavaria's practices in children and adolescents between 12 and 18 years of age," explains Wolfgang Krombholz, Chairman of the Bavarian Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians.

“Over 76,000 children and adolescents in Bavaria have already received complete vaccination protection through the practices.

There could be a lot more, because the necessary capacities are available. "

An overview of special vaccination campaigns in Bavaria can be found on the website of the Bavarian Ministry of Health.

Many special vaccination campaigns are already registered in it nationwide until the end of September.

The list is continuously updated.

Update, 5:55 p.m.: Current case numbers

According to the latest figures from the Robert Koch Institute on Thursday (September 2), the decisive 7-day incidence is 43.9 cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the past 7 days.

The number of those who tested positive is currently 4,778 - 48 of them are active.

These are distributed across the Miesbach district as follows:

  • Holzkirchen: 18 active cases

  • Miesbach: 8

  • Hausham and Tegernsee: 6

  • Irschenberg, Rottach-Egern, Waakirchen and Warngau: 2

  • Bayrischzell and Otterfing: 1

Update, September 2, 2:55 p.m.: Hardly any relief

From Thursday, September 2nd, cable car guests must also show a 3G certificate for vaccinated, recovered or tested.

Children under 6 years of age and schoolchildren are excluded.

Further measures will no longer be linked to the 7-day incidence, but will be replaced by a hospital traffic light as an indicator of the stress on the health system.

The Association of German Cable Cars welcomes the move away from incidence as the sole evaluation criterion and the transition to traffic light regulation.

However, the association rejects the operator's obligation to monitor.

The personal responsibility of the guests must be put in the foreground.

How this is to be implemented by the operators in terms of personnel and organization is completely unclear and its feasibility is questionable.

Apart from the costs for increased personnel expenditure, the checks would increase the waiting time at the cash registers and larger groups of people would form.

This is not only questionable from an infectious point of view, but also leads to stressful situations for the guests.

"We demand equal treatment with public transport," says Association President Matthias Stauch.

“The risk of infection with our systems is extremely low.

Our guests spend almost all of their time outdoors.

The cabins are well ventilated and the stay in the cable cars is very short. "

Preliminary report from September 1st: New Corona rules

The Bavarian cabinet passed new corona rules on Tuesday (August 31).

According to Prime Minister Markus Söder, there should be a new form of freedom.

In view of the progress in vaccination, he ruled out another lockdown, as strict restrictions as in the spring.

The new corona rules:

  • According to the State Chancellery, there will no longer be a mask requirement outdoors.

    A protective mask only has to be worn in the entrance and meeting areas at events with more than 1,000 visitors.

  • In most closed rooms, the mask requirement remains in place, for example in shops and public transport.

    From now on, medical protective masks can also be used.

    At the moment, FFP2 masks are often compulsory in Bavaria.

  • The central element of the new Corona regulation is the 3G rule.

    From Thursday, September 2nd, access to many indoor rooms should only be possible for those who have been completely vaccinated, those who have recovered and those who have tested negative.

    Exceptions apply to public transport, retail and private households.

    Outside there should be compulsory testing for events with 1,000 or more visitors.

  • From October clubs and discos will be allowed to reopen in Bavaria.

    Anyone who has neither been vaccinated nor recovered should present a current negative PCR test.

    Quick tests are not enough.

  • The Corona curfew will be abolished in restaurants and the upper limits for customers per square meter in shops.

  • Cultural and sporting events should be possible with a hygiene concept.

    Organizers can use the full space capacity for up to 5,000 visitors.

    In addition, a maximum of 50 percent of the available spaces may be occupied.

    If the minimum distance of 1.5 meters cannot be maintained, a mask must be worn indoors.

  • A hospital traffic light is introduced as a new warning system, which shows how busy hospitals and intensive care units are.

    This system replaces the 7-day incidence.

  • There will be two warning levels: yellow as soon as 1,200 people have been admitted to hospital in Bavaria within seven days because of corona, and red if more than 600 Covid-19 patients are in an intensive care unit in Bavaria.

  • Basically, there should be face-to-face lessons in Bavaria's schools after the summer holidays - initially with a mask requirement in class.

    Tests are to be carried out three times a week in secondary schools and twice a week in elementary schools.

    The quarantine rules would also be relaxed.
