Germany is struggling to contain infections, complicated by the more contagious B117 variant that first emerged in Britain.

"We need a timetable how to get back to normal life, but it must be a plan that won't have to be revoked after just a few days," Scholz told Bild am Sonntag.

Scholz said the steps would also clarify when visits to concerts, theatres and soccer stadiums would be possible. It also follows a relatively slow start to Germany's vaccination campaign.

Merkel drew up the changes after some of the 16 federal states refused to implement tougher measures.
