As of this Tuesday, you are only allowed to leave your own apartment after 2:00 p.m. if there are valid reasons, as announced by Agriculture Minister Michaela Kaniber (CSU) on Monday night after a crisis meeting with the Upper Bavarian government and district office in Bad Reichenhall. The first exit restrictions in Bavaria have an initial validity of 14 days.

Also I have to schools Y next to turn off. There should only be emergency care, as district administrator Bernhard Kern said. Also recreational facilities of all kinds. Restaurants they are no longer allowed to open. According to District Manager Kern, there are exceptions for take-out deals in the restaurant industry. Events are prohibited, with the exception of religious services. Hotels must also close, except for overnight business travelers.

Good reasons to leave the house include exercising, for example professional activities, necessary shopping, but also Sport and exercise outside, but only this alone or with members of your own household, as district manager Kern said. The “thumbscrews” should now be tight.

According to Minister Kaniber, the so-called 7-day incidence in the district was 272.8. Since yesterday alone there have been 57 new infections. The Robert Koch Institute reported a 7-day incidence of 252.1 for the district on Monday (at midnight), which was initially a national record.

“The starting point was again a corresponding party”

Prime Minister Markus Söder (CSU) had already announced on Monday afternoon that public life in Berchtesgadener Land would have to be closed. “There is no other way,” Söder said. Contacts of the infected could no longer be traced there. “So contacts have to be fundamentally restricted,” he said.

The district is relatively sparsely populated with a population density of 126 per square kilometer. It is not exactly clear how the wave of infection came about. “The starting point was again a corresponding party,” Söder said. Other sources of infection may be possible.

The proximity to Austria also calls for drastic measures, Söder said. If no action is taken now, the high number can no longer be lowered.
