This Friday new lockdowns and corona measures expected or decided on all over Europe.
In Germany, the new coalition government is resisting a lockdown, for now. While Merkel had proposed a lockdown that would begin on Thursday, which would have seen shops, bars and restaurants close, the idea was rejected by the incoming government who said it would have been interpreted by the public as a "bad political trick" by the old and new government. The German newspaper Bild reported Wednesday.
But new measures have already been introduced. For example, the 3G regulation (vaccinated, recovered, tested) now applies in the workplace and on buses and trains. In hospitals, preventive care and rehabilitation facilities, the testing obligation for employees and visitors has been extended. The issuing and use of incorrect health certificates is punishable.
Many well-known protective measures such as the mask obligation and distance regulations are continued. For occupational infection control, the following also applies again: employees should work in a home office whenever possible. The social and economic protective shields will be extended. Measures such as 3G, 2G or 2G plus test can still be decided by the Länder depending on the infection situation.
In The Netherlands, Prime minister Mark Rutte and health minister Hugo de Jonge will hold a new press conference on Friday, a week earlier than planned. The government’s health advisory team will meet on Wednesday evening to make recommendations on new measures. Several members of the OMT have been pressing for a lockdown.
The unelected Dutch government has already introduced new measures this week, but without the usual formal announcement. Social distancing is back from Wednesday, primary schools have published new rules for parents and visitors and self tests are now being recommended for people with symptoms but no other health issues.
In Belgium, The combined federal and regional governments of Belgium will on Friday decide on new corona measures. Belgian prime minister Alexander De Croo said in parliament. Government sources say that a new lockdown is not on the agenda.
Meanwhile, street protests continue daily and are still rapidly increasing in reach and size:
Here's Turkey last night:
Or Switzerland:
One of the main reasons the protests are increasing is that in many countries "vaccinated" people are joining in. Where people disagree on certain things, everyone is now starting to wake up to the fact that giving up your human rights, doesn't mean you are more protected. It means that you are now taking part in a QR code based control grid, not very different from how it started in China.
