Schwerin (dpa / mv) - Economics Minister Harry Glawe (CDU) expects that the infection rate will improve in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania in the next two weeks.
"If I can believe the virologists, this lockdown will mean that we can probably achieve a U-turn in 14 days," said Glawe in the live chat of the "Schweriner Volkszeitung" on Wednesday evening.
He stressed that he could understand the criticism of the lockdown.
“But I don't want any pictures here in MV like in Italy,” he said in memory of March 2020.
At that time, so many patients had died in connection with the coronavirus in the Italian city of Bergamo that there was no longer enough space in morgues and crematoria.
The dead were transported to other areas in military trucks.
The images of these columns went around the world as a symbol of horror.
Glawe also announced that it would examine on May 22nd whether there are opportunities in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania for the formation of model regions, for example for outdoor catering comparable to Schleswig-Holstein.
“At the moment when the incidences drop significantly, we will also have these model projects.
The applications have been submitted. "
