Schwäbisch Hall (dpa / lsw) - The Corona hotspot Schwäbisch Hall with a seven-day incidence of approximately 300 will issue an exit restriction that applies during the day.

"The protection of the population has top priority, so we have to tighten the contact restrictions again and release the curfew during the day," said District Administrator Gerhard Bauer on Thursday evening.

The regulation should come into force on Saturday.

Leaving the apartment is then only allowed for a valid reason - such as shopping, commuting to work or exercise in the fresh air.

This means that an exit restriction will apply throughout the day in the district.

He had previously issued a nocturnal exit restriction again because the value of 100 was exceeded in the seven-day incidence.

This is prescribed by the state's Corona regulation.

The background is the rapidly increasing number of infections in the district.

The number of new infections per 100,000 inhabitants in one week was 292.7 on Thursday (as of 4:00 p.m.).

This is by far the highest value in the southwest.

In addition, according to Bauer, the infection process is still diffuse.

A general decree prescribes the wearing of a medical protective mask from Saturday, it said.

The city had reached a value of 1,065.5 corona cases per 100,000 inhabitants within seven days on Wednesday.

A total of 62 new infections with the British mutation of the virus were registered in the 5800 community during this period, as the district announced.
