“The Free State must take note of the existence-threatening situation in retail and take it into account in its Corona Protection Ordinance,” said the SPD politician on Tuesday.

Shopping in the inner cities should not be “regulated”.

Jung expressly advocated a ribbon solution, such as that which Frankfurt am Main had already introduced at the end of December. Customers should present their vaccination or proof of recovery once at a checkpoint and then be given access to all shops in the city center with a wristband.

“I cannot understand the explicit ban on such a simple and business-friendly regulation as the Free State issued last week,” criticized the mayor of Leipzig.

The Saxon cabinet wants to pass the new Corona Protection Ordinance on Wednesday.

Also the trade association Saxony had already criticized the planned regulations in advance. He called for the 2G rule in retail to be lifted and further relief. According to the association, 2G must be discontinued, especially if the threshold values ​​in the pandemic are not reached.
