Germany’s answer to increase in COVID-19 infections

Since there are many new cases of the Corona Virus in Germany, new laws had to be introduced. The German government has banned all brothels and other adult entertainment venues from operating in the month of November. The laws are different for each state, which means that some things are allowed in one state which is banned in others. Additionally, the laws are not very specific as to what type of prostitution are banned, so certain things, such as escort agencies might still be able to operate.

Curfew in Austria because of the Corona Virus

The Austrian government has also taken action as a result of the increase in COVID-19 infections. The curfew between 8PM and 6AM has been reinstated again and no prostitution businesses are allowed to operate. This means that businesses are not allowed to operate between these hours and that nobody is allowed to be outside on the streets either.
