Following Tuesday’s reports suggesting that the German Chancellor Angela Merkel is considering a “light lockdown,” in the face of rising coronavirus cases in Europe’s economic powerhouse, Bild cites that Merkel is expected to push for schools and nurseries to remain open when she meets the state premier to address the issue later on Wednesday.

“Shops should be able to remain open with relevant safety measures.”
