Berlin - The Berlin Senate has decided on further restrictions for people without corona vaccination protection.

The so-called 2G rule is to be expanded significantly after a decision on Wednesday, as the Senate Chancellery announced.

In view of the increased number of corona cases and emerging bottlenecks in the intensive care units, from Monday only those who have been vaccinated and recovered (2G) should have access to restaurants, cinemas, theaters, museums or galleries, for example, not even those who have been tested.

This also applies to leisure facilities such as saunas and thermal baths as well as amusement facilities such as amusement arcades, as well as closed rooms in amusement parks or in the Berlin zoo as well as in the zoo.

The new regulation does not apply to people who have not yet reached the age of 18.

A proven negative corona test is still sufficient for them.

Currently in Berlin, restaurant operators or event organizers, for example, can decide for themselves whether they allow access to their interiors for vaccinated, convalescent and tested people (3G) or only for vaccinated and convalescent people (2G).

With 2G there is no mask requirement.

In contrast, 2G has already been prescribed for clubs and other providers of dance events.

With the tightening of the corona measures, the Senate is reacting to the significantly increased number of infections in Germany and Berlin.

According to data from the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) on Wednesday morning, the seven-day incidence in the capital is 227.8.

The value indicates how many people per 100,000 inhabitants tested positive for the coronavirus within the past seven days.

At the beginning of October it was still 74.4.
