Bavaria’s health minister threatens Bundesliga clubs if the spectator model fails
In the opinion of Bavaria’s Health Minister Klaus Holetschek, a too lax implementation of the mask discipline in the Munich arena could have an impact on the future approval of fans in the Bundesliga. The CSU politician indicated this to the “BR” and reminded them that the four European Championship games in Munich, each with 14,500 spectators, were a model experiment. “If the model test goes wrong, then I honestly see black that professional football can play in front of a large number of spectators in the future,” said the minister.
Actually, clubs like FC Bayern hope to be able to play in full stadiums again as soon as possible. Both at the opening game of the German team in the arena against France and in the second game against Portugal, many spectators on the courts had removed their masks. Actually, visitors are encouraged to wear mouth and nose protection on their seats as well.
Despite the low incidence figures, the state government warns against becoming reckless in the fight against Corona and is particularly concerned about the consequences of the significantly more contagious delta variant. Beatrix Zurek, head of the health department, found that the measures had been significantly improved before the second batch. “There were folders in every block that we went through. It was indicated on the screen during the game that the mask should be worn, ”she said. But Zurek added: “The folder passed, the mask was put on and then taken away again when the folder was no longer there. It is really a difficult story. “
