Saarbrücken (dpa / lrs) - The Saarland Prime Minister Tobias Hans (CDU) has called for further efforts by society as a whole in order to break the third corona wave that is rolling across Germany.
The agreed "extended rest period at Easter" should make a powerful contribution, he said early Tuesday morning in Saarbrücken after the roughly twelve-hour federal-state consultations.
The principle «#WeBleibenZuHause» applies to five consecutive days.
"By using this time to reduce infections as much as possible, we will usher in a system change," says Hans.
Together with the test strategy, this will help to responsibly implement further simplifications in daily life without risking an increase in new infections.
Because the number of vaccines is still limited, the progress has not yet been so great that the vaccinations are already ensuring lasting relaxation.
Even if the time to travel has not yet come, he is relieved that companies that are particularly hard hit by closings in the context of the corona pandemic and have been affected for a very long time will receive additional financial support from the federal government.
"This special economic aid will also help our tourism businesses in these difficult times."

In the coming days, the state government will discuss the regulation to contain the corona pandemic in Saarland and adapt it to the federal-state resolutions.
