In view of the sharp rise in corona numbers, the CDU is calling for decisive action from the Berlin Senate.
"Corona is racing through our country, through our city," said CDU parliamentary group leader Kai Wegner on Thursday in a debate in the House of Representatives.
Berlin could not afford "fickleness" now.
"Because the virus is not waiting for politicians, nor is it waiting for coalition negotiations to be concluded," said Wegner.
Berlin - "We have to act now, systematically, pragmatically and decisively."
Specifically, Wegner called for the 2G-plus rules announced by Prime Minister Michael Müller (SPD) to be “clear and unambiguous”: “When is the mask used, when is additional distance, when is a test?
Now clarity is required. ”The CDU expects the Senate to clarify this so that everyone can adjust to it.
At the same time, it is necessary to enforce the rules.
The "Senate and the districts are obliged to increase the density of controls."

FDP parliamentary group leader Hagen criticizes new corona rules
The parliamentary group leader of the FDP in the Bavarian state parliament, Martin Hagen, has criticized the announced new corona rules in the Free State.
"The new rules are intended to further increase the pressure on unvaccinated people," said Hagen on Tuesday to the radio station "Antenne Bayern" in Ismaning.
"We see, however, that the political pressure is increasingly leading to defiant reactions and not to higher quotas."
FDP parliamentary group leader Hagen criticizes new corona rules
The Senate is pursuing plans to implement so-called 2G-plus rules to contain the pandemic.
In this case, vaccinated and convalescent people (2G) would have to keep their distance in several areas of public life, wear masks or submit negative tests.
However, the details have not yet been determined.
The catering, hotel and event industries protested against such an approach and consider it to be legally illegal.
Like Wegner, SPD parliamentary group leader Raed Saleh also pointed out that vaccinations are the best protection against corona and that the current vaccination quota of almost 70 percent of the population is not sufficient to achieve so-called herd immunity.
“Vaccination saves lives.
That has to be the appeal every day, every place in this city, ”said Saleh.
Those who did not want to be vaccinated yet had to be convinced otherwise, through facts and arguments.
“Vaccine shelves are well stocked.
Anyone who wants to get vaccinated today can largely freely choose the time and preparation. ”Dpa
