Schwerin (dpa / mv) - Against the background of ongoing forced closings in trade, industry and gastronomy, the state government, business representatives and trade unionists are again advising on strategies for coping with the Corona crisis.

“The situation of many companies in the country is serious because of the corona pandemic.

Behind this are livelihoods, jobs and families, ”stated Prime Minister Manuela Schwesig (SPD) on Thursday on Twitter immediately before the start of the video conference.

Solutions are being sought at the economic summit.

The President of the Association of Business Associations of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Lars Schwarz, referred to the sometimes devastating consequences of the recent lockdown and called for prospects for the entrepreneurs concerned. Clear scenarios are needed for the gradual opening of shops, restaurants, hotels and cultural institutions, said Schwarz. In view of the unchanged high number of new corona infections, there is already a threat that the lockdown will be extended beyond the end of the month.
