Incidence rises to 90.1
Monday, October 4, 7:04 a.m .: The seven-day Incidence in the Free State continues to rise slightly. According to the Robert Koch Institute, it is 90.1 at the beginning of the week. The nationwide incidence is 64.7. The difference in the number of infections between unvaccinated and vaccinated people is still extremely large. While the seven-day value for the unvaccinated is 194.6, it is only 18.8 for the vaccinated. The hospital traffic light is still green.
Furthermore, the Upper Bavarian districts of Traunstein (250.7), Berchtesgadener Land (234.2) and Rosenheim (221.2) most new infections per 100,000 inhabitants in the past seven days – they are the only districts in Bavaria that are above the 200 mark .

Relaxation of the mask requirement in schools
Sunday , October 3, 5:53 p.m .: Many students, teachers and parents have been waiting for this day: From Monday onwards, there will be easing of the mask requirement in schools in Bavaria. The cabinet decided this on Thursday. The changes were announced by Prime Minister Markus Söder (CSU) and Minister of Education Michael Piazolo (Free Voters) on Wednesday. Pupils no longer have to wear mouth and nose protection in class. This also applies to other school events and lunchtime supervision – even if the minimum distance to the neighbors is not maintained at the square. Otherwise, the students in the school building must continue to wear a mask.
This new edition of the Corona Regulation is initially valid until October 29 – it must be extended every four weeks. With the easing, Bavaria is going one step further than Berlin. From Monday onwards, the mask requirement will only be lifted up to the sixth grade. The repeal has been disputed for days. Medical representatives had described a general continuation of the measure in schools as inappropriate. Proponents of the obligation, however, consider a repeal in view of the high number of unvaccinated people and the infection situation – especially among young people – as premature.
The Coronavirus is particularly severe in children from preschool age and adolescents up to 19 years of age, according to RKI data. The question of the risk to children and adolescents from Covid-19 has been discussed controversially for a long time. Proponents of stricter security measures in schools argue that children could also become seriously ill, and point to possible long-term consequences (“long covid”). Pediatricians, on the other hand, had advertised less strict measures in an open letter at the beginning of September: There was scientific consensus that children and adolescents only rarely get seriously ill and usually recover quickly.

In the state capital Munich, the value drops slightly to 87.0 (Friday: 89.6). The district of Amberg-Sulzbach reports the lowest value in all of Bavaria with 25.2.
Doctor is said to have issued false vaccination certificates
Friday, October 1st, 9:20 am: In Northern Swabia, a doctor may have issued vaccination certificates without actually vaccinating the patient. As the police reported on Thursday, the Dillingen criminal police searched the apartment and practice of the resident doctor in the Donau-Ries district the day before. There is a suspicion that there were irregularities in corona vaccinations. “As part of the investigation, it will be checked whether documented vaccinations against the Covid-19 virus have actually taken place,” reported the investigators. The investigation is still in the early stages. No further information could be given prior to the analysis of the seized evidence.

In the state capital Munich, the value is 89.6. The district of Garmisch-Partenkirchen reports the lowest value in all of Bavaria with 22.7.
Bavaria will in future rely on doctors instead of vaccination centers
Thursday, September 30, 5.48 p.m .: Currently, the rate for first vaccinations in Bavaria is almost 65 percent and for second vaccinations at 62 percent. The hospital traffic light is on green, the number of Covid-19 patients who need intensive medical treatment decreased slightly: They are currently occupying eight percent of the intensive care beds again. Reason enough to adjust the existing capacities to the changed conditions in the vaccination strategy. This also applies to the vaccination centers. According to the current status, there are expected to be 81 such centers or base stations in Bavaria in the future – a good 20 fewer than before. 240 mobile vaccination teams are to be deployed nationwide – mainly in old people’s and nursing homes, facilities for the disabled and in schools.
The Districts or urban districts are responsible. For example, the city of Landshut reported that the vaccination center there will move again this Friday – this time to the Dultwach building on Ringelstecherwiese. This is done in order to implement the state requirements – i.e. the reduction of capacities. “Should the demand rise again, a short-term expansion with containers would be possible,” said a city spokesman. In Deggendorf, too, two of the three container complexes on the Volksfestwiese were dismantled. In addition to vaccinations, tests would also take place in the still existing complex. A spokesman for the Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians in Bavaria (KVB) welcomed the change in strategy, as a result of which the vaccination centers will now mainly be mobile and more or less only guarantee “stand-by operation” when stationary. Up to 150 vaccinations a day should still be able to take place in the base stations. In addition, the vaccination centers are prepared to ramp up their capacities again if necessary, said a spokeswoman for the Ministry of Health. “Where and to what extent this is necessary, the district administrative authorities decide,” she said.
Cabinet resolution: Folk festivals in Bavaria allowed again, clubs may open
Thursday, September 30th, 1:29 p.m .: After a long Corona break, folk festivals and other public festivities are now allowed again in Bavaria. Regardless of the seven-day incidence, the 3G rule applies, according to which only those who have been vaccinated, who have recovered or who have tested negative have access. The State Chancellery announced this on Thursday after a cabinet decision in circulation. In addition, clubs and discos are allowed to reopen this Friday, as announced. At the Bavarian schools, the mask requirement in class will no longer apply from next Monday.
Folk festivals in the true sense of the word were still banned. Only certain substitute events were allowed. If the ban falls, then, according to the State Chancellery, the “other generally applicable regulations”, such as the usual regulations for catering in the beer tent, will apply in addition to the 3G rule. Christmas and Christkindl markets should also be able to take place, the state government affirmed, subject to particularly negative developments in the infection situation. Should it be necessary, separate regulations should be issued in good time.
From this Friday (October 1st) on, it is allowed to dance again in Bavaria’s clubs and discos without distance and mask. A stricter 3G rule applies to visitors and employees with customer contact: Only those who have been vaccinated and recovered are admitted, or you have to show a negative PCR test. A rapid antigen test or a self-test are therefore not sufficient. Employees with customer contact must do a PCR test at least twice a week. Loud music, dancing without a distance as well as the dispensing of drinks at the bar are permitted as is customary in the industry, it said. However, the state government insists on “rigorous controls”. Violations should be punished with a fine. Under the same conditions, brothels may reopen from Friday (October 1st).
In addition, the cabinet decided, as did Prime Minister Markus Söder and Minister of Education Michael Piazolo (Freie Voter) announced the end of the mask requirement in class: From Monday (October 4th) on, pupils at Bavaria’s schools will no longer have to wear mouth and nose protection in class, at other school events and during lunchtime care – even if on Place the minimum distance to the neighbor is not observed. Overall, the Bavarian Corona Ordinance with the changes mentioned is to be extended up to and including October 29th.
CSU and Free Voters demand free antibody tests for those who have recovered
Wednesday, September 29, 6:16 p.m .: CSU and Free Voters are calling for free antibody tests for corona convalescents as well as further scientific antibody studies. The aim is to enable more flexible and targeted vaccinations for everyone who has already contracted Covid-19 or who had a positive PCR test. The coalition factions demanded on Wednesday that the state government should advocate assuming the costs for the antibody tests at the federal level.
Health Minister Klaus Holetschek (CSU) stated: “No scientist can yet say with certainty the level of antibodies at which someone is immune to the coronavirus. ” But people were wondering when a third injection would make sense. “That is why we urgently need these studies that can shed light on the darkness.”
Chemical factory pays employees 500 euros vaccination bonus
Wednesday, September 29, 4:47 p.m .: Employees of a chemical factory in Bavaria receive a bonus of 500 euros if they are vaccinated against the coronavirus. The Karl Bucher chemical factory in Waldstetten (district of Günzburg) wants to use the campaign to motivate employees who have not yet made up their minds to vaccinate. Since politicians have a hard time dealing with such a sensitive topic, the company decided to take the offer, said managing director Stefan Bucher on Wednesday. It is not enough if the economy makes itself felt with demands on politics. First, the “Augsburger Allgemeine” reported on the premium. In Germany, vaccination bonuses are rather uncommon for employees; in other countries such as the USA, such special payments are offered more frequently in companies. A few companies in Germany have announced vaccination premiums, but the chemical factory’s 500 euros are unusually high.
Bavaria relies on vaccination teams and medical practices
Wednesday, September 29, 3:22 p.m .: Bavaria will mainly rely on resident doctors and company doctors for vaccinations against Corona in the future, said Bavarian Health Minister Klaus Holetschek (CSU) on Wednesday. From October 1st, mobile vaccination teams are mainly used for booster vaccinations in old people’s and nursing homes or for special vaccination campaigns. The previous 100 Bavarian vaccination centers would become base stations for the mobile teams, but they would also offer a vaccination consultation at least once a week, it is said in a communication from the ministry. There will be at most one reduced inpatient vaccination center per district and urban district by the end of April 2022.
Since the end of December 2020, around 8, Holetschek announced that 8 million vaccinations had been administered. That is around 54 percent of the total vaccinations in Bavaria. Of these, around 4.6 million first vaccinations, around 4.2 million second vaccinations and around 38,000 booster vaccinations. The realignment could give the vaccination strategy the necessary momentum for autumn, said Holetschek. “We continue to rely on intensive communication and vaccination offers that are as low-threshold as possible. We want to convince as many people as possible to take the vaccination.” He advertised vaccinations after work, while shopping, at the fire brigade or at the service station.
Söder announced the end of the mask requirement in schools
Wednesday, September 29, 10:28 am: Schoolchildren in Bavaria should no longer have to wear masks in class from next week. This was announced by Prime Minister Markus Söder (CSU) on Wednesday at a meeting of the CSU parliamentary group in Munich. According to Minister of Education Michael Piazolo (Free Voters), the mask requirement ends on October 4th in physical education. This should be formally decided by the cabinet this Thursday. As a smaller coalition partner, the Free Voters had vehemently pushed for it. “As planned by me, the mask requirement in class will be lifted from October 4th,” said Piazolo. “It was always clear to me: The mask requirement is not mandatory at the court if the numbers and circumstances allow it.” In the first weeks of classes, the aim was to prevent infections from returning travelers. “We achieved this goal.” In the meantime, there is a very tight safety net, especially with the regular corona tests. Outside of the classroom, however, a mask must still be worn in the school building. Since the beginning of the school year, schoolchildren have had to wear mouth and nose protection again – at secondary schools a medical mask, at elementary schools also mouth and nose covers made of fabric are allowed. Regular corona tests are compulsory for all schoolchildren in Bavaria – either with self-tests three times a week or at elementary schools with innovative PCR pool tests. These should be introduced everywhere by the end of the week.
Hospitality industry expected to start in discos and clubs in early October
Wednesday, September 29th, 9:13 am: The nightlife in Bavaria could get a boost shortly. The Bavarian hotel and restaurant association Dehoga expects clubs and discos to open in the first days of October after the closings in the corona pandemic. A practical check on the planned hygiene concept went well, said state manager Thomas Geppert. We are on the right track. The opening on Thursday in the cabinet should be decided. Prime Minister Markus Söder (CSU) announced last week: “It remains the same: We will then allow clubs and discos to open in October.”
The Dehoga is leaving from the fact that the opening takes place under the condition of the 3G rule – that is, recovered, vaccinated or tested – but with a more precise PCR test. The operator agrees with this, says Geppert. “We need as much normality as possible in the discos and clubs,” he emphasizes. The strict access allows freedom in operation. He is confident that the access controls will be implemented: these have always been customary and strict at discos and clubs. On the other hand, he does not believe in any restrictions on the number of visitors or mandatory masking for visitors. According to Dehoga, this would not work – neither for the guests nor economically for the operators.

That was a little more than in the seven days before (77 261), but less than in the two weeks before (88 503 and 81 478).
As part of the nationwide During the week of the campaign, unvaccinated people should be convinced of the uncomplicated and low-threshold offers from last Monday. According to the ministry, more than 400 of the 1,400 actions took place in the Free State. In addition to the campaign with a Ferris wheel in Munich, there were offers on Bavarian marketplaces, in shopping centers or on the football field. The vaccination quota is not yet sufficient for a carefree autumn, said Health Minister Klaus Holetschek (CSU). In the Free State, 63.9 percent are vaccinated at least once and 60.9 percent are fully vaccinated. In a national comparison, Bavaria has the fifth lowest vaccination rate.
German cable car operators are preparing for the 3-G rule for winter
Monday, September 20, 3:58 p.m .: The cable car operators in Germany are also preparing for the so-called 3-G rules for the winter season. Support these rules; they guaranteed safe winter sports and the guests felt better, the Association of German Cable Cars and T-bar lifts announced on Monday on request. However, the obligation to monitor is regulated too strictly and is the sole responsibility of the operator, criticized the association. This must be improved. “We are of course pleased about the promise of the Bavarian state government that there will be no lockdown and that the cable cars can safely plan the winter season with 3G”, said Association President Matthias Stauch of the German Press Agency.
The strict controls of the 3G rules are not feasible in practice in terms of personnel and economics, criticized the association. “Here we expect pragmatic solutions from politicians, such as random checks,” explained the association. “And we would like the personal responsibility of our guests to come to the fore.” Chair lifts and drag lifts are not closed spaces. Mask requirements and distance apply there. Actually, the association does not regard cable car cabins as a “closed space” either. Studies on the aerosol flow showed how well the cable car cabins are ventilated compared to other means of transport or, for example, offices. In addition, the cable car ride is very short. As the first ski area in Germany, winter sports operations are to start on the Zugspitze on November 19th.
3-G random checks at Bavarian universities
Monday, September 20, 8.15 a.m .: Bavarian students can prepare for random checks of their 3G status at the beginning of the semester. In contrast to theater visits, it is not possible at universities to check at each entrance whether those entering have been vaccinated, tested or recovered against the coronavirus (3-G rule), said Bavarian Science Minister Bernd Sibler (CSU) on Monday in ” Radiowelt “on Bayern 2.
Instead, he relies on” structured and close-knit samples “. With students you have to deal with people with a high degree of personal responsibility. He is therefore optimistic that there will be a good relationship. Compared to the last three Corona semesters, there should be more face-to-face events at the universities in the winter semester. Sibler: “So far, many have really only experienced their studies digitally, that will now be a completely different feeling.”
Up and down in the incidence value continues
Monday, September 20, 6:26 a.m .: The corona incidence rose slightly again in the Free State at the beginning of the week. According to the Robert Koch Institute (RKI), the value is now 87.1, on Sunday it was 86.0. The districts of Traunstein and Berchtesgadener Land report the highest corona incidences with 218.0 and 198.3. The district of Neustadt an der Waldnaab has the lowest value. It is 8.5 new cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the past seven days. The hospital traffic light is still on green.
Headmaster angry: Pool tests from Monday unrealistic
Sunday, September 19th , 6.18 p.m.: Actually, the so-called pool tests in elementary and special schools should start this Monday, but the headmasters are on the barricades because of additional bureaucracy. The introduction of the tests “with this time pressure without solidly verified administrative lead time is unrealistic”, wrote the chairwoman of the Bavarian school management association, Cäcilia Mischko, in a letter to Minister of Education Michael Piazolo on Sunday.
“The school administrators have to familiarize themselves with a completely unrealistic and unnecessary appointment setting in a medical area,” says the association that represents the interests of primary, secondary and special school administrators. Parents would have to consent to the tests, but many would be skeptical of them. The Ministry of Culture had announced that the pool tests should ensure even more security. However, a spokesman had already stated on Friday that it will probably not work everywhere with the introduction from Monday.
With the new PCR tests that are evaluated in the laboratory and the The children are supposed to suck on two swabs as more precise than the previous rapid tests. First of all, the samples are collected from all of them in a larger tube – i.e. as a pool – examined. If there is evidence of an infection in the class, the second samples from the children are analyzed individually.
Further relaxation for the cultural sector
Sunday, September 19, 12.15 p.m .: For the culture industry in Bavaria there are further easing in the corona pandemic. For example, cultural institutions can now decide for themselves whether they place guests at a distance of 1.5 meters – then without a mask requirement for visitors – or whether minimum distances are waived – but with a mask requirement. This emerges from the new framework that the Ministry of Art presented on Sunday.
The 3G rule applies to cultural events from an incidence of 35, so visitors must be vaccinated and recover or tested negative. With more than 1000 visitors, the rule applies outside and inside regardless of how high the number of new infections per 100,000 inhabitants is within seven days. Outside there is no longer a mask requirement, even at larger events. Participants do not have to wear a mask if it interferes with the artistic performance. In addition, for artistic reasons, the minimum distance between the participants can be dispensed with. Contacts are still recorded, but no longer related to the seat. Now the contact details of the ticket buyer are sufficient.
SPD files a complaint against the end of the investigation in mask affair
Sunday, 19 September, 10.46 a.m .: SPD parliamentary group leader Florian von Brunn has lodged a complaint against the inconclusive investigation of the Munich I public prosecutor’s office in the mask scandal. “I find the setting of the Emix investigation here in Bavaria very questionable shortly before the general election. I have therefore now lodged a complaint against it and will examine the files carefully,” he said on Sunday in Munich. Von Brunn complained that the public prosecutor’s office had not properly examined the process, but “relied completely on the statements of the Söder government”.
The Munich I public prosecutor’s office had at the end of August her investigations into employees of the Bavarian Ministry of Health because of the purchase of expensive and allegedly inadequate protective masks have been discontinued. The authorities announced that the “investigation against unknown persons” had been discontinued “in the absence of criminal action” . They were accused of having bought one million overpriced FFP2 masks for 8.90 euros each from the Swiss company Emix in March 2020 and having accepted defective goods. The accusation was of (household) infidelity. Von Brunn also filed a criminal complaint at the end of February 2021. “The allegation of criminal behavior has not been confirmed by the investigation,” said the public prosecutor. The contract with Emix was concluded at a time when the pandemic situation in Germany had worsened dramatically. The high purchase price agreed with Emix was the result of a very high global demand for FFP2 masks and a very limited supply. At that time, the ministry also had no alternative offer from another provider. The conclusion of the contract is therefore “not in breach of duty”. September, 8.33 a.m .: From Monday on, unvaccinated employees in day-care centers in Bavaria have to prove that they have tested negative for Corona. Family Minister Carolina Trautner (CSU) recalled this on Saturday. The ministry announced that the security for children, parents and employees should be increased. Starting next week, employees will have to test themselves three times a week. They are not allowed to enter the facility without proof. The cabinet had decided on the rule last week. In addition to the company’s own employees, the obligation also applies to external employees, e.g. cleaning staff or music teachers. The Free State provides the daycare centers with self-tests. In this way, vaccinated or recovered employees could also test themselves voluntarily.
Parents do not have to be tested if they want to bring their children and pick them up or briefly talk to the educators. There should be so-called lollipop tests for children, and parents will also receive authorization certificates for free self-tests – but this is not mandatory. Adults must continue to wear masks. Trautner said that very few daycare centers are currently closed due to Corona.
