Stop with red, but with green there will still be stricter rules? The corona traffic light is causing criticism, the numbers are increasing and the rules are tighter. What’s next Discuss with us!
The first stoplight switch was introduced in early September and since then there has been an increase in the number of corona and many mishaps. Linz was not entirely satisfied with the yellow warning level and turned “green” again after a week like most of Austria, other districts should now be more careful, “orange” has not become a district. And as announced on Friday, there are still adjustments for all of Austria. The mask requirement is making a comeback in many areas and there are also stricter rules in gastronomy and events.
The idea behind the traffic light is really plausible: since clusters are often regionally limited, regional measures can also be taken. But this is exactly where the instrument’s weakness lies: because no district wants to be the “Crown district” like the head of internal affairs. Oliver Pink wrote in an editorial the week before. But it also says, “If contact tracing is to be supplemented / replaced really effectively, then there is no way around a realistic picture.”
It is not only at traffic lights that there is a problem. Thomas kramar In any case, he criticizes the lack of transparency in the capital (almost orange): “Why does the public in Vienna know much less about Corona clusters than in the rest of the federal states”, he asks in a morning gloss.
Also, legally, not everything is always fine. Vice Chancellor Werner Kogler dismissed the fact that Health Ministry ordinances are not always dismissed with sayings about “superior moralists.” Philipp Aichinger see it a little different in a comment.
They have Lorenz, Economist at Agenda Austria, for his part believes that the summer has been in vain. Why? Whether the traffic light is colored or not, homeschooling will likely be with us in the fall too. “Instead of preparing schools, teachers and students on how they can use an emergency mode in the virtual classroom in case the school closes, the lessons are returned to parents,” he criticized in a guest comment.
Norbert rief something more annoying: “The fight against the crisis of the crown has immobilized all political resources,” he writes in an editorial. Now is the time “to address other issues again”, because “the climate crisis is a much greater threat to humanity.”
