Austria Loosens Its Lockdown Restrictions – But Only for the Vaccinated
In what the Austrian Chancellor, Karl Nehammer, has described as an “opening with a seatbelt”, the Government has terminated national lockdown measures, and has granted each of its nine provinces the power to strengthen or relax their own Covid measures. However, unvaccinated Austrians are denied the right to enter public places that have been allowed to re-open, such as entertainment venues and non-essential shops, with the unjabbed only allowed to leave their homes for buying food, exercise, or going to the doctor. The Guardian has the story.
The rules, which vary by region within the country, largely allow for the reopening of theatres, museums and other cultural and entertainment venues on Sunday. Shops will follow on Monday.
Some regions are reopening restaurants and hotels on Sunday, while others will wait until later in the month. In all cases, there will be an 11pm curfew for restaurants, and masks will still be required on public transport and inside stores and public spaces.
The chancellor, Karl Nehammer, last week called the move an “opening with a seatbelt”, giving each of Austria’s nine regions the ability to loosen or tighten restrictions based on the local situation.
Unvaccinated people will still be subject to the lockdown restrictions and should remain at home for all but a handful of specific reasons, such as buying groceries, going to the doctor or exercising.
Since the start of the lockdown, new case numbers have plummeted in Austria. On Friday, the country reported 367.5 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants, down from 1,102.4 on the first day of the lockdown in November.
Hospitalisations from the virus have not dropped as sharply as new case numbers. There are currently 567 Covid patients in intensive care units across the country, only slightly down from 572 on the first day of the lockdown last month.
Austrian officials have stressed that high rates of vaccination are necessary to control the virus. Just 67.7% of the population are fully vaccinated, a relatively low rate for western Europe, and the Government has introduced measures to put increasing pressure on unvaccinated individuals to get the jab.

‘I am here in San Juan, Puerto Rico staying at the Caribe Hilton this weekend to share fact-based information concerning the logic, bioethics, and “The Science” of the experimental jabs with Parents, School Officials, and Medical Care providers in response to Territorial Governor-mandated COVID-19 genetic vaccination of children. It seems that leaders of the 16,000+ physicians and medical scientists that form the International Association of Physicians and Medical Scientists and The Unity Project are needing to travel all over the United States and the world to counter the disinformation being actively promulgated by members of the Trusted News Initiative and various US, UK and European politicians who are acting more like frightened psychotic chickens than thoughtful national and world leaders.’

I spent a lot of time in Austria in 2018 and 19. Beautiful country, great culture, friendly people. It breaks my heart to see what the place has become now.
Austria is lost Trabant

We will soon follow…
And here we all are, at the close of yet another Covidian annus horribilis. 2021 the year where the full horror of the fear porn official narrative promoting bad ‘globalist’ ideas as a better NEW NORMAL became overwhelming obvious.
In the 1st world we’re living through the greatest coup d’état power grab of all time, with BoJo and his fellow puppets completely brazenly delivering it for the elite cabal.

This is long but highly informative…

And guess what? After two years of this UK Govt lockstep delivered GREAT RESET abuse… any thoughts of ever returning to lives old normal fade away permanently for good, just watch with votes to push through Plan C next Tues. Perfect timing don’t you think for yet another Crappy Shitmas for the untermensch?
So what are you going to do about it… keep your masks on, head down and obediently comply? If so just remember there will be no peace for you… your loved ones and/or family by remaining in denial.
No to mandatory vaxxing and Chinese style green pass digital bio-security police states.

Mind you, I seem to remember a historically important figure was born in Austria – surely it can’t have become as bad as you suggest. Oh ………… !
Arnold Schwarzenegger?
Austria is a foul sewer and home of Satan.
How do the local demons check that you aren’t a wicked unvaxxed when you go out?
Get “reborn” into the Cult by taking the V and you too can be “free”, to show your papers at every checkpoint.
The usual standard of Guardian misinformation I see.
Let’s start with “Just 67.7% of the population are fully vaccinated, a relatively low rate for western Europe”.
This sentence has appeared in numerous articles about different countries, even when the opposite is more truthful. Based on statista data, Austria has a vax rate of tenth out of over 30 European countries:
https://www.statista.com/statistics/1196071/covid-19-vaccination-rate-in-europe-by-country/
As for “the country reported 367.5 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants, down from 1,102.4 on the first day of the lockdown in November.”
Ok whoopee, so there are less healthy people in Austria who don’t have a cold. The article then concedes that this has had no impact whatsoever on intensive care numbers anyway, although the picture seems distinctly worse according to Our World in Data 7-day averages via Google:
Nov 1st – Hospitalisations 1094, intensive care 277
Dec 5th – Hospitalisations 2584, intensive care 645
Nov 1st – Deaths 15
Dec 11th – Deaths 56

So it seems the measures have made things considerably worse where it matters, and that’s before we even start on the fascism that’s been implemented.
TV ‘News’ on in the other room… all I’ve heard from that is “Corona Pass” “Corona Pass” “Corona Pass” – it’s as if the more times they repeat that phrase the more people will accept it as normal.
Here’s the latest Government propaganda from Finland, if you can stomach it:

“Chief Physician Hanna Nohynek of the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare (THL).
Nohynek says that “administering three coronavirus shots with a different vaccine each time would appear to improve protection, especially after an initial dose of AstraZeneca. The protective effect is improved by cross-vaccination,” she explained.”
Interesting choice of book ‘Kolmas Valtakunta’ (The Third Reich) by her left shoulder”
To be fair, your PM is considerably easier on the eye than the UK’s….
Actually, has Johnson met Sanna Marin yet? I’m almost certain he’ll try it on.
Sanna Marin also knows there’s no virus. She’s in on the scam. A WEF ‘Young Global Puppet’.
“Marin’s decision to hit the town with friends on Saturday night came after aides informed her a cabinet colleague, Foreign Minister Pekka Haavisto, tested positive for COVID-19.”

Yes, that’s the story that brought her to my attention.
Then she made some lame story up about misunderstanding the rules or something.
Food, exercise, and doctor. Can the unvaxxed leave home to go to work? Or have they all been sacked already?
Search for Slovakia’s covid statistics. On January 27 2021 Slovakia Health Ministry approved the therapeutic use of Ivermectin. This was a temporary approval of 6 months. On July 27 2021 temporary authorization for use of Ivermectin expired in the country. With the use of IVM, new cases zeroed. After the authorization expired new cases skyrocketed to a level that has never been seen before in the country and countinues to do so. There are cures to this flu like symptoms. Get your ivermectin before it is too late! https://ivmpharmacy.com
Just had some WhatsApp texts this evening from my ‘Covidian’ friend in Slovakia – she says the hospitals there are full of the unvaccinated with Covid.
I replied the hospitals in Finland and in the UK are filled to the brim with vaccinated who have Covid.
Well, if she’s going to spread lies, I can play that game too.
She told me last Sunday that her mother got Covid a week after getting her 3rd ‘booster’. You have to laugh.
Austria Loosens Its Lockdown Restrictions – But Only for the Vaccinated
When this nonesense comes here, which it surely will, it will be accepted and encouraged by the sheep and there will be no way of stopping it.
Has anyone seen the video of those 5 MEPs speaking out at a barely attended press conference in the EU parliment. What a pity we havent got a few hundred like them in our Parliment
