Germany Extended The Quarantine to April

Country extended the quarantine application until April 18 within the scope of coronavirus measures.

Faced with the third wave in the coronavirus epidemic, Germany extended the quarantine to April. With the increase in infection rates and exceeding the level that the authorities say hospitals would decline excessively, the country's government decided to extend the quarantine practice. Meeting earlier this month, regional leaders agreed on a cautious opening that overrides Angela Merkel's objections, stating that more contagious mutations make it difficult to contain the epidemic. The Robert Koch Institute for Infectious Diseases reported that the average case in the last week was 103.9, which is above the 100 threshold that intensive care units will begin to run out of capacity on Sunday. In the draft text, which constitutes the main source of the extension of the quarantine in the coronavirus epidemic, it is stated that the quarantine last until April 18 and this situation will be an "emergency brake".
