Stores Reopen Under Strict Conditions As Lockdown Measures Ease

BERLIN, GERMANY - MARCH 09: People enter KaDeWe department store on the first day since December stores are reopening to in-person shopping during the novel coronavirus pandemic on March 09, 2021 in Berlin, Germany. Shops are reopening nationwide this week under strict conditions according to the infection rates in their respective regions. In areas with incidence rates between 50 and 100, which accounts for much of Germany, customers must book an appointment online to enter the store. Infection rates, which had been falling continuously since December, have levelled off and even begun to climb in recent weeks, which authorities attribute to the spread of the B117 coronavirus variant.
