Kiel (dpa) - In the fight against the corona virus, Schleswig-Holstein does not want to ignore changes in the Federal Infection Protection Act.

"I am open to more binding regulations in the Infection Protection Act for regions with an increasing incidence above 100," said Prime Minister Daniel Günther (CDU) on Thursday when asked.

“However, in this law we should get to the root of the problem and concentrate on the really effective solutions to contain the pandemic, not on the areas that, according to scientific knowledge, have little effect on the development of the infection process, such as retail or Outdoor activities. "

An incidence above 100 means that the number of new infections per 100,000 population has risen above this mark within seven days.

Günther said he was surprised that colleagues were calling for a solution under federal law.

“We already have every opportunity within the legal framework and on the basis of resolutions to take all measures in the event of high incidences.

You just have to do it. "

The current discussion about a nationwide lockdown could only relate to an emergency brake for regions with high corona numbers.

He also shared the opinion of Chancellor Angela Merkel, said Günther.

"In regions where the incidence is lower and where hospital occupancy is under control, the step-by-step plan applies."

Therefore, the opening of the outdoor catering in Schleswig-Holstein planned for next Monday will not be affected.

As of Wednesday evening, the northernmost state had the nationwide lowest incidence of 63.3.
