Other new additions to Germany’s list include Liechtenstein, Ireland, Poland, Great Britain, Northern Ireland, Gibraltar and much of Austria, Croatia, Italy, Sweden, Bulgaria, Slovenia, Hungary and Estonia.
The only regions to come off the German list were the Canary Islands and part of Estonia.
People entering the Federal Republic of Germany who have been in a risk area at any time within the 14 days prior to entry, may be required to isolate, depending on the quarantine regulations of the responsible federal state, said German authorities.
On Thursday, German health authorities described the growing spread of the virus as “very serious”.
