According to Prime Minister Stephan Weil, the nationwide tightening of the corona rules in the case of more heavily burdened hospitals will soon lead to the introduction of the 2G rule in Lower Saxony as well.
"We see 2G nationwide from a hospitalization level of 3. In Lower Saxony we are today at 4.7," said the SPD politician on Thursday evening after the deliberations of the federal and state governments.
Hanover / Berlin - The new Corona regulation in the country should apply from next Tuesday (November 23).
From a value of 6 new hospital admissions of corona infected people per 100,000 inhabitants over seven days, 2G plus should then apply - i.e. the admission of only vaccinated or convalescent people to certain areas if they also submit a negative corona test.
"That is to be expected in Lower Saxony sooner or later," said Weil.
In the event of an incidence of hospitalization - in Lower Saxony the leading indicator for assessing the corona situation for some time - above 9, the federal states can implement further tightening.
If necessary, there will be individual regulations for this, so Weil.
Thursday's resolutions stipulate that complete lockdowns in winter should be prevented if at all possible.
In extreme cases, however, it should be possible for leisure, sports and cultural facilities or clubs and shops to close regionally.
