Germany health experts frustrated with Covid-19 lockdown

Covid-19 infection isn’t going to be reduced even with a severe lockdown in Germany. That’s why German Chancellor Angela Merkel and heads of state have consulted with experts before taking a new decision on the lockdown.

According to a report in Germany’s Der Spiegel newspaper, all experts have expressed frustration over Germany’s ongoing lockdown.

Experts warned that Germany should learn from the coronavirus in the UK. Experts believe that the number of infections has increased due to the fact that many people do not take into account the lockdown during the Christmas and New Year holidays.

Der Spiegel reports that despite a severe lockdown in Germany, the German government took a number of new decisions on Tuesday that did not reduce coronavirus infections and mortality. The new decisions will be effective for the next three weeks as a strategy to keep the infection to a minimum.

According to the new decision, instead of ordinary masks, FFP2 masks should be worn in public on roads or public transport buses, trams, trains and shops. Public transport will carry less passengers than capacity. You have to do ‘home office’ as much as possible. The school will be closed till February 15.

However, the primary schools will continue their educational activities under the alternative system.
