Corona “social challenge” - Söder wants to take everyone with him and make appropriate decisions

Corona is not only a virological, "but increasingly also a social challenge.

In addition to safety, it is always about society.

We want to take everyone with us and will make appropriate and balanced decisions based on science, ”the CSU * boss continued.

Gastronomy: Söder indicates a special route with the 2G-Plus rule

Was that why Söder already indicated a special path for the Free State immediately after the Prime Minister's Conference?

As Chancellor Olaf Scholz had announced, 2G-Plus will apply to the catering trade in the future.

Means: Only vaccinated and convalescent people who also have a negative corona test * are allowed to go to a restaurant.

An exception should apply to people who have already received a booster vaccination *.

But Söder made it clear: “I asked the Minister of Health to check whether this is really necessary from our point of view.

We are very, very cautious and skeptical about this.

We also made a declaration on this today, and we will then make a final decision on next Tuesday. "

2G-Plus decided in gastronomy: But these countries are not participating

Söder is skeptical about the 2G-Plus rule in gastro

Tightening - like an incidence-independent 2G-plus rule in the entire catering trade - would first have to be checked on the basis of the most reliable scientific expertise possible.

It is important to involve society in the measures, said Söder.

Since the experts in the conference could not have adequately answered all questions, questions unfortunately remained unanswered.
