Düsseldorf (dpa / lnw) - After the tightened lockdown resolutions, the hotel and hospitality industry in North Rhine-Westphalia has accused the federal and state governments of a failed corona policy.
After the gastronomy and hotel industry went empty-handed, the hospitality industry must now be opened to vaccinated, convalescent and tested people, the industry association Dehoga NRW demanded on Tuesday.
The state must organize the infrastructure that is indispensable for this as soon as possible.
In view of the political failures in tests, vaccinations and digitization, it is now "about compensation, not just about help".
Gastronomy and hotels have been closed since the beginning of November.
The Prime Minister of the federal states and Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU) had decided to extend the lockdown to April 18 in view of the sharply rising corona numbers and the rapid spread of the British virus variant.
"Feelings of powerlessness, existential fear, resignation, anger and anger among restaurateurs, hoteliers as well as employees and trainees have increased since the second lockdown," said NRW Dehoga President Bernd Niemeier.
"The mood is devastating: We are fed up, especially because we have done our homework and the state has not done its."

As compensation for its “special sacrifice”, the association demanded more support such as an appropriate entrepreneur's wage and an increase in fixed costs of up to 100 percent.
Claims settlement must be continued for the larger employers in the industry, as the current bridging aid III is not sufficient due to the upper limits.
In addition, the suspension of the obligation to file for insolvency must urgently be extended beyond April 30th.
Still not all November and December aid had been paid out.
