“Epidemic situation of national scope” – a cumbersome term, but one that directly determines our lives. It is about the corona rules, for example the mask requirement or the 3G proof. More precisely, the question is who decides on these rules: the government or the parliament.
“I think it would be the right signal to declare the emergency over and at the same time to communicate massively that Corona is not over yet,” says Hanno Charisius from the knowledge department. In To the Point, Charisius talks about what the classification really means for our everyday lives and who needs a booster vaccination.
