For the coming months, the government is focusing on the combination of booster vaccinations and the increased use of COVID-19 drugs. From 1 August, the segregation of infected persons is replaced by a ten-day traffic restriction: Infected persons without symptoms are allowed to leave the house, provided they wear FFP2 masks throughout

The following rules are currently valid:

• Compulsory FFP2 masks only in highly vulnerable areas (e. g. hospital), in public transport including stops and in customer areas of essential retail (e. g. pharmacies and food retail).
• The validity of the third vaccination is increased to 365 days (from 9 to 12 months).
• The obligation to appoint a COVID-19 representative and to draw up and implement a COVID-19 prevention plan will only apply to meetings of more than 500 people (instead of 50 people).
• In justified cases, stricter rules may be laid down at the place of professional activity in order to prevent the further dissemination of COVID-19.
• In addition to the nationwide framework conditions, the federal states can, as in the past, issue stricter rules.
