First weekend under 3G conditions in Berlin. Numerous capitals went out on Friday evening. It was so full in the Kulturbrauerei in Prenzlauer Berg that the inner courtyard was cleared.
Before that, shortly after 10 p.m., there was such a large crowd that, according to initial information, at least one person was injured. The courtyard was eventually cleared by the police.
The fire brigade was on site with several ambulances, two emergency doctors, a senior emergency doctor and an organizational rescue service leader. The police were on site with service dog handlers and a squad of hundreds.
The discos and clubs in the capital have been open again since Friday. “Under the 2G condition plus test,” as Franziska Giffey said. The obligation to test also applies to those who have been boosted. For major events, the following has applied since Friday: A maximum of 60 percent of the maximum capacity may be used in closed rooms, and a maximum of 75 percent outdoors. There is an upper limit here. This is a maximum of 25,000 people. A 2G+ rule also applies here.
More rules: 3G now applies to gastronomy, hotels, hairdressers, cosmetics and massage. This measure also applies in fitness studios, saunas, thermal baths and indoor pools. There are no longer any restrictions for athletes outdoors.
And: Private meetings, in which only vaccinated or recovered people take part, are possible without limiting the number of people. Children under the age of 14 do not need to be vaccinated or recovered to attend. Restriction: If an unvaccinated person participates, the restriction to one household and up to two people from another household applies.
