Germany on Friday declared all of France a high-risk area.
Passengers traveling from France to Germany will need to present a negative coronavirus test. At airports, he will be asked to show him when boarding a plane, and on the roads, random checks will be carried out more intensively.
Quarantine on arrival is desirable, French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian explained to fellow citizens in an interview with the national radio station.
In both countries, the increasing number of new cases is a matter of serious concern to the authorities.
In Germany, the number of cases per day exceeds 20 thousand, and the authorities say that the third wave could be more destructive for the country than the first and second. The Robert Koch Institute has warned that without tightening quarantine measures, Germany may face up to 100 thousand new cases of coronavirus per day.
