German Chancellor Angela Merkel's member of the staff said Saturday that he was "very sceptical'' about views of people going at Easter but expected the coronavirus situation in the country to increase by the end of May.
Helge Braun told the Funke newspaper group in an interview announced Saturday that he is "very suspicious as far as travel at Easter is concerned.'' Easter falls on the first weekend in April this year.

But Funke said he believes that "we can talk in a significantly more relaxed way about travel and freedom from Whitsun,'' on May 23.
Merkel and state governors this week allowed to extend lockdown measures until March 28 while planning a roadmap for easing restrictions in areas with lower diseases level.
'Full normality in the summer'
Braun said that Germany could turn to full normality in the summer if vaccine guests keep to their performance promises and no new coronavirus mutation arises "that supports issues over the whole benefit of vaccination.''
