Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

There won't be curfews for unvaxxed under the proposals. It will just mean unvaxxed won't be able to go to bars/restaurants basically, and they'll have to show a negative test before using public transport.

Ah so the vaccinated people get a green light to spread the virus but the unvaccinated have to sit on the naughty step for not doing as they're told.

It varies, they have this 2G and 3G system here. 2G means only vaxxed and recovered can enter. 3G is vaxxed, recovered and tested. As far as I know it only needs to be an antigen test rather than PCR. Most late night type of bars tend to be 2G whilst restaurants tend to be a mixture of 2G or 3G. None of them really check thoroughly either way though lol - we have a covid app where we can store our vax certs with a QR code. But nowehere scans them, just a waiter or bar staff takes a quick look at your app and then waves you through in most cases.

Not surprising really. As I imagine he/she is not there as a app checker, per their work definition. Must be exhausted at the end of the night.

Do vaccinated people have to show a negative test too? If not, why?

Vaxxed don't spread the virus to the same extent as unvaxxed.

I don't blame the waiting staff, it's on the proprietors. They can easily buy some equip[ment to scan QR codes.

No they don;t as yet, but it's being considered I think. I think the state of Bavaria might have done this already. But the rationale is vaxxed can spread the virus, but not to the same extent as unvaxxed.

But they can still spread the virus, whereas an unvaccinated person that doesn’t actually have covid has a 0% chance of spreading it?

They'll be riots soon the people will get fed up of the tolitarian regimes operating across Europe.

I dont like Johnson and the Tories but I dread to think what Corybn would have done in this situation - you would be serving a 10 year stretch in the gulag for not having track n trace downloaded on your phone.

In view of their recent historical pasts, you’d have thought that Austria and Germany would’ve had the foresight to see where this kind of thing could potentially be heading

 

[BlueToff]

What Austria is doing is absolutely insane

what evidence is there of Corybn being pro-surveillance and law & order? sounds more like a Starmer idea to me.

Confining people to their homes until vaccinated.


Whatever next, visible badges to be worn, identifying the un vaccinated ?

New Zealand is pretty similar. Unvaccinated are unable to go basically anywhere and are losing their jobs in various industries.

My mate was being daft about being unvaccinated in NZ. Wonder if he's changed his tune now.

It's not like it's just adults, either.

It's anyone over 12.

Disgraceful.

It wont last as it not sustainable for business's and the economy.

Lets say businesses now only get 70% of people through the doors because the other 30% aren't allowed to go, Bars/Restaraunts/Cinemas/Hotels/airlines.....they wont last 12 months before they go under.

Stuff like this makes me very uncomfortable.
