- (General Dispatch) – With the purpose of contributing to the task of health specialists and their work team, German Chancellor Angela Merkel asked the citizens of her country to comply with biosecurity measures.
- In view of the constant wave of contagions that the nation has had to face in recent days, registering 24,300 new cases and a total of 201 deaths, the population is alerted to prevent the spread of the disease.
- Through a video Melker indicated that “There has to be a peaceful Easter festival, I urgently ask you to refrain from all non-urgent travel and that we all constantly follow the rules”.
- In spite of the fact that once again on such important dates for the citizens they have to submit to strict measures, these guidelines are necessary to avoid further complications for the teams working in the health area.
- He also assured that next Tuesday at least 35,000 doctors and health personnel will receive immunization against the coronavirus, as a safety measure to continue attending to the emergency.
- Apparently, in this second quarter of the year, Germany will receive the vaccines from Astrazeneca, in order to distribute them to the population most vulnerable to contagion.
- Notably, the restrictive measures will be applied during this Easter week, as a small number of activities will be allowed during specific hours of the day. Most of the commercial sector will be closed.
- In summary, Germany will experience a second Easter full of restrictions until the coronavirus is eradicated, and also as a measure to support the health area, which is exhausted after a year of uninterrupted work.
