On Sunday, November 22, two senior German officials said in remarks that the country will have to extend its current measures to contain the coronavirus pandemic to last in December.
Germany imposed “general isolation measures” for a month, starting from November 2, to contain a second wave of the virus that is sweeping much of Europe, but the number of infections has not decreased.
“Everything indicates that the current restrictions should be extended for some time after November 30,” German Finance Minister Olaf Scholz said.
Although bars and restaurants are closed, schools and shops remain open.
