BERLIN, Jan 5 (Reuters) - Germany is set to tighten its contact restrictions to slow the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, a draft document seen by Reuters showed on Tuesday.

Members of a household will be allowed to meet just one additional person, the document showed.

Chancellor Angela Merkel and the premiers of the 16 federal states were discussing the measures on Tuesday. A news conference is expected in the afternoon. (Reporting by Andreas Rinke; writing by Thomas Seythal; editing by Riham Alkousaa)
