NEOS requires the publication of all government protocols on the crown crisis. Club boss Beate Meinl-Reisinger and the deputy Douglas Hoyos announced parliamentary initiatives at a press conference on Thursday. Meinl-Reisinger accused the government of focusing on its own staging and demanded an end to fear-mongering.
On Wednesday, details of two Republic Corona advisers were leaked, according to which some experts have proposed different measures than those finally implemented by the government. So you have about Franz Allerberger On March 9, the Ages described closing schools and kindergartens as problematic. Dr. Graz also Ivo Steinmetz Therefore, he believed that older people in particular should limit social contacts.
The government’s fear strategy was also criticized. According to an email conversation on March 14, Allerberger said one should quickly get away from the “very dangerous virus” message. This is counterproductive, Sars-CoV-2 “is not dangerous for more than 80 percent of the population.”
Alarmism
Meinl-Reisinger demanded an end to the alarmism. “If you continue with a policy of fear, you will hit the country against the wall.” Instead, the government should disclose the experts’ recommendations and opinions, thereby ensuring transparency. In the second phase of the pandemic, which Austria is in now, the self-determined action of people is crucial. And that requires information.
The protocols that were made public would suggest that turquoise green is often more about self-promotion and public relations than about education. The motto was: “If you don’t know anything, you have to believe everything.” The government had relied on half-information, perhaps also disinformation, authority, and fear.
More than 80 press conferences.
There have been more than 80 government press conferences. However, what has been said there has not always resisted reality, as evidenced by financial aid, which is too slow. These press conferences focused primarily on self-assessment. “We demand that all government protocols be disclosed. The announced disclosure has not yet happened,” said Meinl-Reisinger.
NEOS raised a parliamentary question on all the regulations, which should reveal which experts were against and which were against, as well as a motion in the next plenary session. Meinl-Reisinger warned that confidence in politics and measures would be destroyed by government public relations. Now you need smart strategies to keep your distance, protect people at risk, and locate clusters of infection. “And this requires educated citizens, because a second confinement will not survive. That is not an option.”
Two advisory boards
The documents of the Ministry of Health are about the “Corona Task Force“, in which several medical professionals (from virology and epidemiology to public health) work. The second body is the”SKMM Sars-Cov-2 / Covid-19 coordination staff“at the Home Office, with SKMM for”State crisis and disaster management“It is currently not possible to say whether his documents will be published,” said a spokesman.
