German Perspective - 07.12.21
This week: The pandemic is once again dominating events. The appearance of the new mutation and its rapid spread and intensity have come as a surprise to many. Uncertainties are developing, and these concern the private and the corporate sphere. In many countries, there are new restrictions on public life. With the accumulation of cases and the subsequent quarantine obligations, more and more businesses are suffering, despite vaccinations. This is hitting sectors that are already suffering from labour shortages even harder. In the leather industry, too, this is making planning difficult. It’s hard to think about plans for the next few months when you don’t even know exactly what will happen in the next few weeks.
