Angela Merkel intends to extend in April the anti-Covid restrictions currently in place in Germany due to the third wave of the pandemic, according to a government document obtained by AFP on Sunday.

Due to "the current dynamics of the infection accelerated by the variants of Covid-19", it is expected that the country "extends" until a date yet to be determined precisely in April all the travel restrictions in force, underlines this document, which will serve on Monday as a working basis for a meeting scheduled on the subject between the Chancellor and the German regions.

Germany recorded 16,000 new cases of contamination on Saturday and 207 more deaths, according to the Robert Koch Institute for Infectious Diseases.
