From Friday: 2G rule dropped in several areas

Berlin has repealed the 2G rule for retail. The Senate passed a corresponding amendment to the Infection Protection Ordinance at its meeting on Tuesday, Governing Mayor Franziska Giffey (SPD) announced.

FFP2 mask obligation in retail stores

Currently, only vaccinated and recovered people are allowed to shop in many retail stores. From Friday (18 February 2022), this will no longer apply. Instead an FFP2 mask requirement will apply in retail outlets. This regulation also extends to the tourism sector, e.g. for guided city tours and boat trips, as well as for museums, galleries and memorials.
