Germany imposes COVID-19 restrictions on unvaccinated, proposes vaccine mandate
Posted 1h ago

German Chancellor Angela Merkel says people who are not vaccinated will be barred from non-essential stores, and cultural and recreational venues.

Key points:

• Germany's leaders are considering making COVID-19 vaccination mandatory
• Masks will be required in schools and there will be caps on private meetings under new restrictions
• Overwhelmed hospitals in the south and east of the country are transferring patients to other parts of Germany

The nation's parliament will also consider a general vaccine mandate as part of efforts to curb coronavirus infections as the number of new cases again tops 70,000 24 hours.

Speaking after a meeting with federal and state leaders, Ms Merkel said the measures were necessary in light of concerns German hospitals could be overloaded with people suffering COVID-19 infections, which were more likely to be serious in those who had not been vaccinated.
