Good evening,


in a few years we will do a nice corona quiz! Let's see who then still knows what an incidence number is, how the Delta variant differs from others and what the difference between 2G and 3G is. At the moment, of course, anyone who somehow moves beyond their apartment door knows that. Where it says 2G, only those who have been vaccinated or who have recovered are allowed in, only 3G allows those who have been tested, i.e. those who have not been vaccinated, access. The Hessian state government has now decided that, for example, restaurateurs and hairdressers will in future be able to decide for themselves whether they will let in 3G or just 2G. The government is wise on the one hand because it increases the pressure on those who have not been vaccinated, and on the other hand because the anger of those who have to stay outsidedirected against a restaurateur and not against a minister or even prime minister. Whether it helps to increase the vaccination rate: resubmission in a few weeks.

Also nice for the Corona quiz in 2028: the hospitalization incidence.

This is brand new, was only introduced by the state government on Monday, and indicates how many people per 100,000 inhabitants were admitted to a hospital with Corona in the past seven days.

In Hesse it is currently 2.51.

In the future, the value should be a measure of whether there have to be new restrictions.

More about that tomorrow at this point.

Do you want to distract yourself from all this hardship?

Go to the new Romantic Museum in Frankfurt.

My colleague Florian Balke was there on Tuesday and reports that the visitors on the first day were very impressed.

And you get other thoughts for a few hours.

And in addition, the Kunsthalle Wiesbaden presents new portraits of the photographer Herlinde Koelbl +++ a pastor in Wiesbaden defends himself against anonymous criticism of the ringing of bells +++ about 20,000 Wiesbaden residents had to do without electricity on Tuesday.

I wish you a pleasant evening

Yours Manfred Köhler
