• The reason is the incidence value, which has risen to over 100
• Tracking contacts is becoming increasingly difficult, according to Stadt
• Measures could relate to contacts, a mask requirement or curfews

In view of the increasing incidence values, the Bremerhaven magistrate is advising on further tightening of the corona measures. Since the weekend, the incidence in the city has been back above 100 – on Tuesday at 134.6. Reducing private contacts, tightening the mask requirement or imposing a curfew – these are some of the possibilities that the magistrate wants to discuss on Wednesday. Because the situation in Bremerhaven has worsened.

With more and more infections, according to the city, contact tracking no longer works. It remains unclear where the people were infected, and chains of infection cannot be broken. In addition, the hospitals are now working at their capacity limit again. But it is also clear that the city does not want to shake the current easing in trade and culture for the time being. It is said that shopping or visiting the zoo with an appointment are not drivers of infection. The shops, museums and the zoo have very good hygiene concepts.
