Part of the company will move to a home office in Germany to minimize contact between people. Cultural and sports facilities will also be closed. However, the German government has decided to keep schools and kindergartens open.

So far, Chancellor Angela Merkel and her actions have enjoyed public support, but the mood in society is changing. However, Germany is facing the highest increase in new cases since the beginning of the epidemic. More than 14,000 were added on Tuesday.
France is also preparing for a lockdown. President Emmanuel Macron has yet to introduce new measures for the next four weeks. They could pay as early as Thursday.
According to BBC it seems that, as in Germany, schools will remain open. However, some economic sectors will receive another blow – especially entertainment establishments where people can spend their free time will be closed. “The country is on the verge of overloading the health system,” local authorities say.
In France, curfew is already in force at night from 21:00 to 06:00. The number of deaths associated with covid-19 is rising sharply in the country. More than 500 patients succumbed to the disease on Tuesday.
