the Ministries have different opinions. Some, such as the Federal Ministry of the Interior or the Federal Ministry of Development, are sticking to 3G rules with obligations to provide evidence of negative tests, vaccinations or convalescent status, while others, such as the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs, no longer require this evidence. The obligation to wear at least surgical masks is largely maintained in the ministries. This usually applies in common rooms, in corridors or in meetings up to the square. In the Federal Ministry of Health, the mask can be removed if you are sitting alone in the office.
Particularly the rules initially remain strict in the Bundestag. the MPs and their staff must too continue to wear FFP2 masks and have proof of 3G with them.
