Compared to population, Germany has half as many new infections as Austria, but local Chancellor Angela Merkel warns that the situation remains dire. On the other hand, you see a light at the end of the tunnel. Are you trying to motivate people for the really tough times that are coming?
Sebastian Kurz: Yes of course. I shared an assessment with the general public that all experts agree on: there is a light at the end of the tunnel, a vaccine is likely to be expected for the foreseeable future. At the same time, I pointed out that fall and winter will be extremely challenging. Life is changing from the outside to the inside and there is also the annual flu wave. We have to prepare for this. And it is good to know that this is limited in time. That can give us all strength.
What do you have to be prepared for? Countries like Israel, which were initially doing well, are suddenly facing a host of new infections. Croatia too. Does that show that something much worse could come?
Short: The pandemic is not over. The number of infections develops around the world in waves. This can also be compared to an accordion: the more massive the measurements, the more likely it is that new infections will decrease.
