Because of the sharp increase in the number of infections, the state government of Baden-Württemberg is calling out the highest corona alert.
Further measures to contain the pandemic such as stricter mask requirements in public and further contact restrictions are to apply from Monday. This was announced by Prime Minister Winfried Kretschmann of the Greens after an extraordinary cabinet meeting. FURTHER DETAILS FOLLOW
Pandemic level 3 means entry into the "critical phase". This begins in particular when the number of new infections per 100,000 inhabitants exceeds the limit of 35 within a week. This has been the case in the southwest since last Thursday.
On Friday, the so-called seven-day incidence was 42.2. It is also already clear that from Monday the mask requirement in secondary schools will also apply in lessons. So far, it has only applied to so-called meeting areas such as school corridors, auditoriums and toilets.
Masks still do not have to be worn in primary schools. In the Corona hotspot Stuttgart, a mask is already required in class. The state government introduced the three-stage alarm system in September. The seven-day incidence is decisive for the classification.
But other factors also play a role in the assessment, such as the absolute number of infections, the number of tests or the reproductive value (R value), which indicates how many people a sick person infects with the virus on average.
According to the concept of the state government, the number of people per point of sale should then be restricted in retail. In the catering trade, the serving of alcohol could be restricted, a reservation requirement introduced and operation restricted to outdoor areas.
Events and contact options are to be restricted, and hygiene measures and sanctions for violations are to be expanded. Standard care in hospitals should be limited to the bare minimum.
These measures are intended to avoid a general lockdown - the closure of schools and companies - as far as possible.

-THREADE-

Greece is strengthening the security systems at the land and sea borders with Turkey. Behind this is probably the fear of a new influx of migrants. Five meters high, 27 kilometers long, 63 million euros expensive:
Greece is arming itself with massive barriers on the Evros river against the feared new migrant flows from Turkey. Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis inspected the construction work over the weekend.
The Greek land border with Turkey is 206 kilometers long. For the most part, but not continuously, it follows the course of the Evros River (Turkish: Meric). The Evros was the scene of a week-long trial of strength in the spring:

#BELGIUM #LÜTTICH /#LIÈGE #CORONAVIRUS

Liège Province hospitals are sounding the alarm. In the houses CHU, CHR and CHC, an occupancy of 112 percent of phase 1B was achieved. Phase 1B means that half of the hospital beds must be reserved for corona patients.
Currently more patients with other pathologies are being treated with it than the disaster plan allows. That said the medical director of the Liège University Hospital, Pierre Gillet. Patients are already being transferred to other hospitals.
Operating theaters would be converted into Covid stations from Monday. The first patients in the intensive care units will soon have to be transferred to other houses. The biggest problem, however, is the thin staffing levels. There is a massive shortage of nurses.

#China #Bejing #Coronavirus

Chinese lawmakers have imposed new biosecurity laws to adopt disease and risk management programs following months of international backlash. In order to report any potential health threats, health workers are encouraged.
As part of wider measures to strengthen its management of disease outbreaks, Beijing passed a new law on Saturday to protect whistleblowers who reveal knowledge about public health emergencies. It is also hope that the new biosecurity law would correct structural shortcomings,
such as those that hindered China's initial response to the coronavirus outbreak, Chinese lawmakers said. The new legislation, which comes into effect next year on April 15, calls on people to report "events that threaten biosecurity."
