Berlin, February 16 (BNA): German leaders announced, on Wednesday, plans to end most of the restrictions imposed on the Corona virus in the country by March 20, a decision that coincided with the moves of neighboring Austria and Switzerland to cancel many restrictions soon.
A three-step plan has been approved by Chancellor Olaf Schultz and the governors of the country’s 16 states as official figures show the COVID-19 infection rate in Germany has begun to decline, according to the Associated Press.
“The peak may have been reached by now,” Schultz said, adding that “the situation is constantly improving” can be expected in the coming weeks.
Mitigation is to begin by abolishing the rules that prevented People without evidence of vaccination or recovering from visiting non-essential stores and lifting restrictions on private gatherings of vaccinated people.
From March 4, entry requirements for restaurants and bars will be relaxed, and a negative test will suffice rather than proof of vaccination or cure plus a test or booster dose, as is the case in many areas at the moment.
