After all the magic was done with the new German Infection Act.....you really have to dig through the paperwork to find paragraph 74.
In this one paragraph, which has to do with things you might have intentionally or accidentally done....you are led to a short four-line piece which says you could get five years in a German prison for a violation of the Infection Act. Yes, five years.
This got brought up in a Focus article this morning by Jan Fleischhauer.
Jan gave the example of a friend of his....who stopped at a local Munich gas-station at 10:10 PM (after the curfew started) to buy a pack of smokes, and the police arrived. End-result? 500 Euro fine.....for a pack of smokes episode, during Covid-curfew.
I think the extent of the fines, and the prison time....has started to scare some folks, and the identification of this relating back to DDR times now pops up occasionally.
Any of this ending in 2021? I would seriously doubt that any of the Covid threat diminishes in 2021 or even in 2022. Just go and ask Germans if they think the Christmas market business will be 'normal' or a no-go situation for December of 2021.
