I spent near thirty minutes reading through this one single regional story out of Hamburg-City. NDR (regional news, public TV) published the piece.
Basically, the city wrote up a two-page 'order' on areas of Hamburg where you have to wear a mask, and where it's optional. It went neighborhood to neighborhood....street to street.
Example: If you lived in the Saint George destrict....around Steindamm, then from Steintorpltaz 33....along the whole street, from noon to 12 PM....you wear a mask.
Same district....along Stralsunder Strasse....from noon to 10 PM....you wear a mask.
Same district....near Ballindamm, from the Europa Passage (Haus 40), from 3 PM to 6 PM.
In the Reeperbahn area (the hooker and bar district)? From weekend nights, 6 PM to 4 AM.....you are supposed to wear a mask.
So you could be out with friends, and suddenly turn a corner, and find yourself in serious trouble with the police standing there....with no mask on. The old fine of 80 Euro for failure on the mask? That's gone....it's now 150 Euro.
Yeah, a fair number of locals via social media have commented....nothing makes any sense and you have to continually pay attention to where you walk.
