German lockdown extended to 18 April. Over Easter holiday (1-6 April) moreover supermarkets & other shops, with few exceptions, will all be shut. This is right as one would expect pervasive seasonal suppression to begin. They know what they're doing and this is all so tiresome.

There are hints, yes, like this: "Sie habe argumentiert, die bis dahin geeinten Maßnahmen reichten nicht aus, um die Infektionsdynamik zu brechen. So könne man in der Öffentlichkeit nicht bestehen." But I do not believe they will be able to turn the sentiment on this measure.
