German lockdown: Merkel announces tough new COVID curbs | News | DW | 13.12.2020


  • All nonessential shops and services will close until January 10, including hairdressers which remained open under the current lockdown "lite."
  • Schools are urged to send students home and continue lessons online, as well as extend the winter break until January 10.
  • Day care centers will also close, but parents will be able to take paid holidays in order to look after their children.
  • Employers are encouraged to allow employees to work from home.
  • People will not be allowed to drink alcohol in public.
  • Religious events in churches, synagogues and mosques may take place if they follow hygiene rules, but communal singing is not allowed.
  • States still plan to ease stricter contact restrictions for December 24 to 26 so that close family members can spend Christmas together — a household may, during this time, invite up to four adults from other households but only from the immediate family, plus any number of children under 14.
  • People may not purchase fireworks for New Year's Eve.
The chancellor also recommended that families who are planning to meet up should isolate for a week beforehand to be safe.

or were not included in the 1,282,932 number - wondering why they wouldn't be included?

or were false positives - should also be some false positives in the other number???  or false negatives?
I'm sure there is a good reason, I just haven't been educated

There are lockdowns and there are "lockdowns"... Orange County is the latter.

When my wife went to the grocery store on Saturday, she saw nail salons open for business. She saw restaurants open for both indoor and outdoor dining. Otherwise restaurants are still operating. Our local wine bar is proudly proclaiming on Instagram that they're open. I'm guessing if I need a haircut next week before the holiday, my barber will be open. 

I'll bet in France and Germany, a "stay at home order" actually results in businesses closing, people staying at home, and it actually slows the spread. 

Whereas yesterday Orange County posted it's highest single-day case rate since this thing started... On a Sunday.

You guys need to stop having wild orgies and such I keep reading about that goes on in California
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

Sounds like California is behaving much worse than what I see around here.

My son is here from SF.  He says SF is shut down, but just south in San Mateo is it close to business as usual, so all the city folks drive to SM to visit bars.

Atlanta is still "open", no large gatherings of course.  Conventions are shut down, downtown must be suffering.  I picked him up at ATL around 6:30 AM and traffic was pretty bad, but it was raining and lots of accidents.  Traffic seems close to normal usually.

Bear in mind that Orange County is not quite like some of the rest of California... It's one of the conservative areas of the state.

Also bear in mind that especially in Southern California, even for the liberals, they have to balance their liberal ideals with their extreme selfishness. Guess which one wins?

Well, this whole state is mostly conservative, except Miami, where cases and deaths are the worst.

And this state is fully open, save for a few local/county requirements. I still don't like the positives being over 5 percent though.
