The federal and state governments are apparently considering a three-stage plan to end all far-reaching corona restrictions by March 20th.

"By the beginning of spring on March 20, 2022, the far-reaching restrictions on social, cultural and economic life are to be gradually lifted," says a draft available to the Reuters news agency on Monday for the consultations between Chancellor Olaf Scholz and the Prime Ministers' Conference on Wednesday.

In a first step, access to retail “nationwide for all people without controls” and private meetings for vaccinated and recovered people with more participants would be allowed.

From March 4th there would be loosening for restaurants, discotheques and clubs as well as for major events.

From March 20, "all far-reaching protective measures" will no longer apply, as will the mandatory home office regulations.
