BERLIN (dpa-AFX) – The German Hotel and Restaurant Association (Dehoga) warns of further sales losses for companies in view of the planned stricter access rules for the catering trade. “The nationwide introduction of 2G-plus access rules is a disaster for many companies,” said general manager Ingrid Hartges of the “watson” news portal. The companies are already struggling with a significant drop in sales compared to 2019. “Every second entrepreneur fears for his existence,” said Hartges.
On Friday, the federal and state governments had decided, among other things, on a 2G-plus regulation for restaurants, cafés and pubs. In the future, only those who have been boosted or who have been vaccinated twice with a daily test should have access.
Hartges pointed out that less than half of the people in the country are currently boosted. In addition, long queues are to be expected in front of test centers that only have limited opening hours. “This hits all companies particularly hard that live from spontaneous visits and many younger guests, who are often not yet boosted.”
