This afternoon, the Hessen state authority came out and laid out the agenda for remainder of the year (so this meeting with the Chancellor Merkel on Wednesday)....doesn't really matter now. Don't ask....it's a matter of the state dictating things, rather than the federal folks.
So, the current mini-lockdown? It goes to 20 December. Will something happen on the 20th? No one says much. Maybe a total relaxation of ban rules from 20 to 27 December? Ha....it's a five star rumor but there's no truth in that suggestion at all.
Private meetings in the house? The state says a max of five people from two houses? Yep, from 1 December to 17 January.
The Christmas 'waiver'? It's written this way....you can have ten people (not counting kids....don't ask why kids don't count). BUT you have to go into self-quarantine for several days prior to Christmas, and several days after Christmas.
Sounds hokey? Well....I tried to imagine some father explaining this to the two kids.....having to do self quarantine before visiting the aunt's family on the 26th of December, and then do another self quarantine after the visit. On paper, maybe this makes sense, but it requires an awful lot of imagination.
