Stuttgart (dpa / lsw) - The 600,000 or so people in Stuttgart are no longer allowed to be outside at night without a valid reason from Friday.

Since the incidence figures in the state capital increased, the measures would have to be tightened, justified Mayor Frank Nopper the step.

"The emergency brake that we pulled on March 31, unfortunately, did not lead to the hoped-for containment of the infection," said the Christian Democrat on Tuesday.

The incidence value on Tuesday (as of 4 p.m.) was 149.2.

In the course of the emergency brake, museums, galleries and the botanical-zoological garden Wilhelma were closed.

Most body-hugging services such as those in cosmetic, tattoo and nail studios have been banned.

The retail sector had to stop the “Click and Meet”.

The more far-reaching decision of the state capital was also made with a view to the nocturnal curfews in almost all districts in the Stuttgart region - with the exception of the Böblingen district.

In addition, the state of Baden-Württemberg has announced that it will follow the decision of the federal government to order night curfews through the new version of the Infection Protection Act if the incidence value of 100 is exceeded for three days.

The curfew applies for the first time in the night from Thursday to Friday from midnight.

In the following days, the restriction begins at 9 p.m. and ends at 5 a.m.
