Berlin (dpa / bb) - Berlin's CDU state chairman Kai Wegner considers stricter rules for the mask requirement to be superfluous.
"What is necessary is not further tightening of the mask requirement, but the consistent implementation of the existing regulation," said Wegner on Friday.
"Anyone who disregards regulations must be punished if necessary in order to learn their lesson."
Most of them obeyed the rules.
"The problem is the small group of people who ignore the hygiene requirements, who wear their mask as chin protection or even completely deny the virus," said the CDU leader and top candidate for the House of Representatives election in September.
The Berlin Senate wants to advise on the future Corona measures on Saturday.
It is also about the “emergency brake” agreed between the federal and state governments, the withdrawal of easing in the event of a stable seven-day incidence over 100. “Müller calls for the emergency brake in the federal government, counts Brandenburg for too lax stance and puts it in Berlin to its own demand zero point zero », criticized Wegner.
"This is how you lose people's acceptance in the fight against Corona."
Berlin's governing mayor Michael Müller said in a government statement on Thursday that he did not consider it a viable option to turn back everything that had been fought for in the last few weeks in terms of opportunities and freedoms.
Wegner warned the Senate was risking a third, fourth or fifth lockdown.
"But we have to do everything we can to get out of lockdown."
Vaccination is the decisive lever for this.
«I expect the vaccination campaign to finally get off to a real start.
It has to be faster.
Instead of Easter, Berlin needs a 24/7 vaccination marathon. "

Corona tests would also have to be used much more intensively.
Testing can be the decisive factor so that closed shops can reopen soon.
Corona tests are an important component in regaining lost freedoms as quickly as possible, for example for education, dining out, culture and sport.
"That is always better than shimmy from lockdown to lockdown, without predictability and with disappointed hopes."
