             <p>Why make it easy when you can make it more complex? Corona regulations are generally passed by the federal government and then have to be passed again at the state level, often with inexplicable local flourishes, before becoming law. This creates a Germany-wide quilt of differing regulations that few understand. This week is no different though Berlin has decided to stretch the introduction over two days. Starting today in Berlin, <strong>people in contact with an infected person no longer have to go into quarantine if they’ve received a booster vaccination or belong to the new “fresh” category</strong> - “freshly” vaccinated or recovered. “Fresh” means within the past three months. Quarantine for other contact persons now ends after 10 days, rather than 14, and people can test out (rapid antibody or PCR) after 7 days. Is anyone enforcing this?</p>
             <h3> New corona rules Saturday (tomorrow)</h3>
             <p><strong>FFP2 masks are now mandatory on public transport,</strong> so keep the surgical masks until the next time politicians change their minds (the only constant in this pandemic). Bars and restaurants are also 2G plus, which means recently recovered or vaccinated PLUS a same-day negative test result or proof of a booster vaccination. This applies to any other indoor events with more than 10 people as well. </p>
