Mönchengladbach On many streets in the inner cities of Rheydt and Gladbach, it is mandatory to wear an outdoor mask on Mondays. With risk level 1 for the city, other measures also apply.
Inside the towns of Gladbach and Rheydt, a mask is required on many streets as of Monday. As announced by the city on Saturday evening, this is justified by exceeding the seven-day incidence value of 35. This means that since Saturday, hazard level 1 has been officially in effect in Mönchengladbach in terms of the ordinance of protection of the crown of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia.
Depending on the city, the following additional measures will take effect:
- Events with more than 1000 people are not allowed.
- A maximum of 25 people can participate in private celebrations with an “exceptional occasion” outside an apartment.
- In the future, the mask requirement will also apply to the sitting and standing area at concerts and performances.
- The mask requirement also applies in highly frequented outdoor areas such as pedestrian areas.
- Outside of families and individuals from two households, only a maximum of 10 people can meet in public.

According to data from the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) in Mönchengladbach, the seven-day incidence on Sunday morning was 45.59. This means that just under 46 people per 100,000 residents have recently been infected with the corona virus in the last seven days. The incidence is well above the 35 threshold and just below the 50 mark. From this value, Mönchengladbach would be considered a risk area.
