Mannheim (dpa / lsw) - The Lord Mayor of Mannheim Peter Kurz (SPD) welcomes the new easing policy of the federal and state governments, but sees the basis for it critically.

«We have a month-long lockdown behind us, which was not really consistent and therefore not a complete success.

Therefore, a change of strategy was correct, ”said the town hall chief of the second largest city in Baden-Württemberg to“ Mannheimer Morgen ”(Saturday).

The fact that there are now clear if-then scenarios is definitely positive.

"I see more critically that this is very mechanical and that the incidence should be the only yardstick," said Kurz.

The situation in the hospitals is important and also the extent to which chains of infection can be traced.

"The new Luca app could be a great relief," said the mayor of the newspaper.

"If it is widely used and adopted, it makes tracking a lot easier."
