The Bundestag has approved a new resolution with new corona measures.
An overview of which rules should remain in place and which should no longer apply in the future.
Berlin - On Thursday, the Bundestag passed the corona rules for the traffic light parties for the period from November 25th.
Then the so-called epidemic situation of national scope, which was the legal basis for numerous requirements, will come to an end.
The previous catalog of particularly strict measures is to be reduced, while new measures are made possible at the same time.
The plans can still change if they are not approved by the Federal Council.
The Union threatens to be rejected.
According to the traffic light, no longer possible in the future:
- Exit restrictions
- Comprehensive school and daycare closings
