German health minister Jens spahn warns Germans to be reluctant to travel abroad during the fall and winter holidays due to the increasing number of corona infections. “You can also go on vacation to Germany,” the CDU politician told ZDF on Friday. You know that this is very difficult for tour operators, travel agencies and of course also for citizens waiting for their holidays.

“But now we have experienced twice – keyword Ischgl, winter and summer holidays – that when people return, infections return to Germany with more force.” He favors learning from him for the fall and winter holidays.

Spahn again rejected a German-wide mask requirement in public places. The minister said that it was about taking the appropriate measures for the respective contagion process. “That’s why always on site at regional and local level.” Otherwise, the measures will lose acceptance. An outbreak like that of meat producer Tönnies, for example, mainly affects employees. “In Munich the situation is completely different, there obviously it is mainly due to celebrations, also to nearby celebrations in public places.”
