IMPORTANT NOTICE:
I'm sure you've already read it in the press, there are new regulations in Germany regarding C19. These also affect private meetings, which is the New Year's Meetup. It applies:
- Vaccinated and recovered people are allowed to meet only within a group of maximum of ten people (children up to 14 years are excluded) from December 28.
- If unvaccinated persons are present, then the rules for unvaccinated persons apply: this means meeting only with own household and maximum two persons of another household.
- These rules also apply to the outdoors.
Of course, this also has an impact on our New Year's Meetup. Partly these rules were already valid before, but especially the rules for vaccinated people are new. We can now consider the new rules as good or bad. However, the discussion does not help now.
As from my point of view it is not the task of a private person to obtain information on the health status of another person or even to check vaccination cards or other health certificates, I will not do that either. The state of health of another person is simply none of my business as a private person and I have no right to receive information about it. Anyway, this would have nothing to do with overlanding and would only contribute to further negative developments in society.
Nevertheless, we must abide by the applicable rules. Therefore, the note: Only fully vaccinated/from C19 recovered persons can participate in this New Year's Meetup. I see no other possibility because of the new rules. As far as I can see by the RSVPs here, we will keep the maximum group size within the limit of 10 persons.
I wish you all a Merry Christmas and look forward to seeing you in the New Year!
