It is the last escalation level for the time being: As more and more corona sufferers are filling the intensive care units in the southwest, the alert level will apply across the country from Wednesday.
Unvaccinated people have to stay outside in many places.
Stuttgart - Unvaccinated people in Baden-Württemberg will be largely excluded from participating in public life from Wednesday. As Prime Minister Winfried Kretschmann (Greens) announced on Tuesday, the country will reach the so-called alert level due to the worsening situation in the intensive care units. Only those who have been vaccinated and those who have recovered will then have access to restaurants, museums and most other public events.
If the number of Covid 19 patients in intensive care units exceeds the critical value of 390 on the second working day in a row, the so-called corona alert level automatically comes into force in the southwest.
In this case, the Corona Ordinance provides for the 2G rule nationwide, for example in restaurants and museums, at exhibitions and in most other public events.
Anyone who is not vaccinated and can only show one test is left out in the cinema, in the swimming pool or in the fitness studio, in adult education courses and music schools.
Schoolchildren have to wear masks again in class from now on.

Basic supply shops such as supermarkets, outdoor markets and pick-up and delivery offers are also excluded.
For the overnight stay in the hotel, however, unvaccinated persons have to present a PCR test.
Even at the hairdresser or in the nail salon, the alarm level 3G with a PCR test is mandatory.
The contact restrictions for unvaccinated people will also be tightened.
In future, meetings will only be allowed for one household and one additional person.

Children and young people up to the age of 17 are also not counted.
The tier system in Baden-Württemberg depends on the number of corona patients in intensive care units and the so-called hospitalization incidence, which indicates the number of people who come to a clinic with corona symptoms per 100,000 inhabitants within a week.
So far, the so-called corona warning level has applied in the southwest, which has already resulted in numerous restrictions for many unvaccinated people.
In order for the tightened Corona measures to expire, the threshold values must be fallen below on five working days in a row.
