German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and regional leaders tightened the rules for restaurant and other facilities visits but shortened COVID-19 quarantine periods on Friday in response to the Omicron variant.
Scholz added that all 16 state leaders supported the implementation of a general vaccination mandate and that the Bundestag lower house of parliament would discuss drafts of it soon.
Under new measures decided on Friday, people in Germany who have received a booster shot will not have to isolate after being in contact with someone who was infected with the coronavirus.
