Munich (dpa / lby) - To monitor the 15-kilometer rule in Corona hotspots, the President of the Municipal Assembly Uwe Brandl can also imagine using cell phone data.
“Today we could read movement profiles from cell phones and in this way determine very accurately where people are.
We just have to decide now what is more important, health protection or data protection, ”he said on Monday morning on Bayerischer Rundfunk.
In the Corona hotspots in Bavaria, the following has been the case since the beginning of the week: Those who live in an area with particularly high numbers of infections are only allowed to move within a radius of 15 kilometers around their place of residence on excursions.
Which municipalities are affected depends on the figures published by the Robert Koch Institute (RKI).
The rule applies automatically in rural districts and urban districts that exceed 200 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants within a week.
The restriction does not apply to anyone who goes shopping, drives to work or wants to see a doctor.
"I think we just have to have more courage to use the digital possibilities," said Brandl.
The police also have limited resources to control the 15-kilometer rule.
«So there will only be spot checks.
(...) And I believe that any regulation is only as good as it can be executed and monitored. "
