European countries consider further lockdowns after another surge in Covid cases - BBC News

Politicians across Europe are weighing up how best to battle large rises in Covid cases.

Austria has already imposed some lockdown restrictions for the unvaccinated only, and other countries such as Germany are considering re-introducing some rules as Christmas approaches.

The debate about whether vaccines alone are enough to stop the spread of the virus is one of the main reasons some politicians want restrictions re-imposed.

Segregation in Austria and Germany didn’t work too well last time they tried it

Problem :

How to convince the unvaccinated that the vaccines work ... and at the same time explain to the vaccinated to do the 3rd dose because the vaccines do not work ...

You have 4 hours.

So if you have tested negative and you are healthy you are not allowed to go to coffee shops but if you are vaccinated and might have covid you can, makes sense right?

Exactly, THIS RAISES ISSUES REGARDING HUMAN RIGHTS!

[germans]

Ignore it especially if they say unvaccinated can’t go out. There is no law to say you can’t go out.

It is not 'European countries' doing this, it is European POLITICIANS.

Mass non-compliance is the only way out of this

Just because a person is vaccinated doesn't mean that when they're in your place of business, their COVID status is negative.

Austria has already imposed some lockdown restrictions for the _unvaccinated_ only (Ireland is seeing *rising* covid cases despite having one of the *highest* vaccinations rates in the world).

[andrewtrip]

This raises serious issues about whether we were lied to about the vaccine and if millions of healthy people have had their immunity compromised.

[demonhalo]

Utterly sick of this BS. We are all losing our minds and lives with this. LET US GET ON WITH OUR NORMALITY! ffs.
