Coronavirus: Germany bans large gatherings till end of the year and tightens controls

German Chancellor Angela Merkel addresses the media in Berlin on August 27, 2020.

German football stadiums will most likely remain empty for the initial part of the season as Chancellor Angela Merkel warmly extended a ban on large gatherings until December 31.

It comes after Merkel met with her 16 state governors on Thursday to discuss how to stem coronavirus infections in the country after daily infection rates spiked to the highest levels since the end of April.

Sport was not the main focus of the talks, but it is covered by the decision to extend the ban on events where hygiene and tracing can’t be ensured.

That ban was initially set to run until October 31 but was extended for another two months.

The state governors’ chiefs of staff will, however, form a working group to consider the possibility of spectators at events and report their findings by the end of October.

Bavarian governor Markus Söder agreed with health minister Jens Spahn’s assertion that it would send the “wrong signal” to allow fans to go to the games.

Over 200 shops have been burnt into ashes in the second inferno that hit the market on Easter Sunday. This adds to three, the fire outbreaks that have been experienced in Kumasi in less than 72 hours.

UK-based Ghanaian with 2 wombs shares story It may probably sound like a fairy tale to hear there exists a woman who has more than one vagina and one womb, but Elizabeth Amoah has lived with this condition for quite some time and has now decided to let the world know about it.

ENCHICO CAMPAIGN AGAINST SEXUAL HARASSMENT

A new awareness campaign is being launched today at ENCHI COLLEGE OF EDUCATION targeting sexual harassment and sexual violence. Sexual harassment is not about sex. It’s about power. It’s about the power a boss can exercise over a worker, the power a teacher can exercise over a student, and power—less concretely defined—that male co-workers can exert over their female peers. It’s a kind of power play, manifested as sex discrimination. Sexual harassment is one of the leading forms of discrimination that women and femme-identifying workers face. Surveys show that 58% of women report having experienced gender harassment at work. Sexual harassment and discrimination are against UE’s values, and they are illegal under most union contracts. It is also illegal under Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, a law that UE fought to get passed. In 1980, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) issued guidelines defining sexual harassment. It is defined as: (1) unwelco...

WE CAN'T ADMIT FRESH STUDENT THIS YEAR- E.P COLLEGE SAYS

The E. P.
