First districts in Bavaria impose curfews — further measures on the horizon.

On 18 March 2020, the District of Tirschenreuth issued a curfew for the town of Mitterteich based on the German Infection Protection Act (Infektionsschutzgesetz, IfSG). A similar measure has been adopted for at least two further municipalities. Meanwhile, the Bavarian state government has publicly considered imposing a curfew for the entire state of Bavaria if necessary. Other federal states (Bundesländer) may soon follow suit.
