1. Deaths: 4,104 Infections: 137,853 (Focus numbers)
2. Bavaria leads the states with 1,164 deaths.
3. Saxony moved ahead of the 16 state governments to mandate a facial mask of any type (even a scarf) is required if you ride the bus or train, or work in retail operations. A few hours after that....Mecklenburg (the state) went to the same rule.
4. In general, the Bahn trains are running on a 80-percent schedule. Some chatter indicates that it'll increase over the next week.
5. Brandenburg will now allow/authorize minor demonstrations (20 people or less). Most states are not allowing demonstrations at this point.
6. A fair number of Germans are getting negative about 'public-sheriffs' (individuals who call the police if you've apparently violated any of the bans). The term is used in a critical and negative way.
7. Ice cream stands will re-open on Monday (only for take-away). It's a big sign of things returning to normal.
