Germany entered a hard lockdown on December 16 last year, closing schools and non-essential businesses in an attempt to stop a sharp rise in Covid-19 infections.

Only important businesses, such as supermarkets and banks, will be allowed to remain open.
Companies are being urged to allow employees to work from home.
