After the announcement of a general corona vaccination obligation in neighboring Austria, German politicians of the traffic light parties are ruling out such a regulation for Germany.
Berlin – “There won’t be,” said the SPD politician and Federal Foreign Minister Heiko Maas to the TV broadcaster Bild Live about a general corona vaccination requirement. “Because we don’t consider it necessary, because we also consider it difficult from a constitutional point of view.”
The FDP health politician Christine Aschenberg-Dugnus criticized Bavaria’s Prime Minister Markus Söder (CSU) for being open to a corona vaccination. “Putting the general compulsory vaccination as a threat in the room does not help anyone,” she told the “Bild” newspaper (Saturday edition). “Especially the countries with dramatic Corona numbers should concentrate on expanding the vaccination offers as agreed and implementing the new Corona measures.”
In Austria, a new corona lockdown begins on Monday, which also affects vaccinated people and should last a maximum of 20 days. In addition, everyone in Austria must be fully vaccinated against the coronavirus on February 1st – otherwise, there is a risk of fines. Austria is the first country in Europe to take such tough measures in the face of the latest corona wave. The nationwide seven-day incidence in the Alpine republic was over a thousand on Friday – in Germany the nationwide value was 340.
