The federal government has declared all of mainland France and the Netherlands, as well as the regions of Italy and Poland for the first time, to be corona risk areas as of Saturday!
Furthermore, Malta and Slovakia will be included in the risk list, as well as individual regions in nine other EU countries, as the Robert Koch Institute announced on its website on Thursday.
These include eight regions in Switzerland, including the canton of Zurich bordering Germany, areas in Sweden and Finland for the first time, and other regions in Great Britain, Ireland, Croatia, Portugal, Slovenia and Hungary.
The Federal Foreign Office is expected to issue a travel advisory for all new risk areas. With the addition of five Polish regions, including the metropolises of Gdansk and Krakow, to the risk list, none of Germany’s nine neighboring countries will no longer have risk areas as of Saturday. However, the Polish border areas are still safe.

Italy, the second most popular holiday destination for Germans after Spain, is now, at least partially, on the risk list. With Liguria and Campania there are two very popular tourist destinations: Campania of southern Italy with Naples, the Amalfi Coast and the islands of Capri and Ischia, as well as the northwestern coastal region of Liguria around Genoa.
