Therefore, the Saxon Minister of the Interior thinks that the driver should not wear a hat or sunglasses in addition to the mask that is now required. The Saxon Police President Horst Kretzschmar has since contradicted this legal opinion, because the sunglasses are partly used for road safety. There is no blanket ban on wearing sunglasses and hats in the car if mouth and nose protection has to be worn at the same time. It is always an individual decision.

In many municipalities in central Germany, the 15 km rule has now been lifted, only a few rural districts still adhere to it. Can I go back to my weekend house in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania?
The 15 km rule did not apply to trips to the weekend house anyway. In the second lockdown, which came into force at the end of 2020, it only had to be observed when shopping, exercising and exercising in the fresh air. A weekend domicile (in Germany) can therefore be visited regardless of whether the 15 km rule applies. This must be distinguished from tourist stays in rented holiday homes; these are – currently still – prohibited.

Can the tax office seize an account due to tax debts to which Corona aid benefits have flowed?
Are health authorities allowed to pass on data about people infected with corona to the police?
Passing on lists of corona-infected people from health authorities to the police regardless of the occasion is not permitted under data protection law. In individual cases – for the purpose of averting danger, for example – data may be passed on, for example if there is a specific suspicion that a quarantine obligation is not being complied with and that this would put other people at risk.

Can parents leave their child at home for fear of contracting the corona virus, even though primary schools are open again?
The primary schools in Saxony have been open again since February 15, whereby strict hygiene rules must be observed. The school attendance requirement is currently lifted due to Corona. Those who prefer to leave their child at home can do so without having to give a specific reason. Parents should nevertheless carefully weigh up whether the loss of educational opportunities, social contact with their peers, etc. actually outweighs the risk of infection.
