Berlin (dpa) - Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania's Prime Minister Manuela Schwesig insists on strict rules for Corona hotspots before the corona consultations with the other states and the federal government.
At the same time, easing should be possible for areas that clearly and permanently have fewer than 50 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants within a week, said the SPD politician on Monday on Deutschlandfunk.
According to the Robert Koch Institute, only Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and Schleswig-Holstein (both 46.5) are currently below this so-called incidence value.
This Monday, the state heads of government want to determine their position for the consultations with Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU) on Wednesday.
With regard to Germany as a whole, Schwesig said: “The numbers are subdued, but they remain high.
And therefore, in the opinion of many countries, the November shutdown must be continued, especially in the risk areas. "
However, she pleaded for the contact restrictions to be relaxed over the Christmas season and the turn of the year.
“I think it's right that at Christmas it is possible that at least ten people can come together,” said the Prime Minister.
However, this figure does not seem to have been negotiated among the federal states, as can be seen from the last known resolution proposal by the federal state of Berlin, which is currently chairing the conference of prime ministers.
A restriction to five people is therefore still in the room.

Schwesig emphasized that the new proposals by the federal states were different from the resolution proposed by the Chancellery in the previous deliberations, which had been rejected by the Prime Minister.
«We propose how things continue in December and January.
Of course, the industries also want to know what about us, when things can be eased.
None of that was discussed last week, ”she explained.
