New corona rules: BaWü takes effect and apparently imposes the strictest regulations nationwide

The amended Infection Protection Act gives the federal states more leeway.

A federal state is now using this and imposing the strictest corona rules in Germany.

Stuttgart - With the amended Infection Protection Act, the federal states now have more options to individually adapt the Corona * rules.

Baden-Württemberg is now using this and is apparently introducing the strictest Covid rules in Germany.

As early as next Monday (September 13), unvaccinated people in Baden-Württemberg are to be largely excluded from public life if too many Corona * patients are in the intensive care units.

Baden-Württemberg takes action: Strictest corona rules in Germany

Hamburg had previously introduced a similar regulation.

Here, however, the 2G rule for hotels, restaurants and events applies optionally - the operators decide for themselves whether 2 or 3G.

This should now be different in Baden-Württemberg *.

2G should apply from Monday as soon as more than 300 intensive care beds are occupied in the country, according to the report.

Unvaccinated people then only have access to basic supply shops such as supermarkets, petrol stations and bakeries.

Pregnant women and children under twelve years of age are excluded.

New corona rules: upstream warning level with extended test obligation

A warning level should apply in the country from an occupancy of between 200 and 250 intensive care beds.

Then there should be an extended test obligation indoors: Unvaccinated people only have access with a negative PCR test.

In contrast to the 7-day incidence previously, the hospitalization rate, which is now decisive for the rules, and the intensive care bed occupancy are now recorded nationwide.

This is due to the fact that sick intensive care patients sometimes have to be taken to hospitals further away in order to be treated.

According to the report, retailers warned of “fatal consequences” in advance. The exclusion of re-vaccinated persons and the associated control obligation would inflict the death blow on the retail trade, Business Insider quotes from a statement by the Baden-Württemberg Trade Association
