Söder calls for the classification of Tyrol as a “zone of mutation” – Bavaria

Bavarian Prime Minister Markus Söder (CSU) calls for the German government to declare Tyrol and the Czech Republic “mutation zones”. In this case, border controls would be established for both countries, Söder said on Thursday in Munich. Only those who can present a negative corona test can enter. All others would be rejected.

Söder said he supported the Austrian government’s approach to Tyrol because of the particularly high number of crown mutations there. Söder added that it was “not entirely clear to him” whether this was being taken so seriously in Tyrol. Therefore, Bavaria shared concerns about developments in Tyrol, Söder said, warning: “We don’t want to experience a second Ischgl again.”

Until now, Great Britain, Portugal, Ireland, Brazil, and South Africa have been classified as mutation areas in Germany because variants of the mutated coronavirus are widespread in these countries. (apa)
