On Monday, Chancellor Kurz harshly criticized the refusal of the test to avoid quarantine. He called this behavior “grossly negligent.”
Chancellor Sebastian Kurz (ÖVP) has harshly criticized the rejection of corona tests to avoid the quarantine of K1 people, also in companies. Such behavior would be “grossly negligent”, he said Monday night in the interview (previously recorded) for the citizen forum “Puls 4 / Puls 24”. Those who don’t get tested because they don’t want to be quarantined agree that they can infect others with potentially serious health effects.
Kurz expects broad participation in mass testing
Kurz looks forward to the widest possible participation in the massive tests that are now beginning. They are the opportunity to “overcome this crisis before the summer without remaining in a permanent blockade.” From an economic point of view, they are an “extremely cheap means”, since the blockade costs several billion euros a week.
Vaccination is supposed to bring “light at the end of the tunnel”
The long-awaited “light at the end of the tunnel” will only bring vaccination next summer. Kurz assumes that the 70 percent that is needed to eradicate a disease will also be vaccinated. However, in the beginning, it will have a different theme anyway, that is, there is not enough vaccine for everyone, but that it will only be delivered in installments over the months. There will be no compulsory vaccination in Austria. Kurz does not consider it necessary to link entry to Austria only with a corona vaccine: in Austria, as in Australia, for example, there is no question of preventing it from being presented to people. The virus is “very present here, so the problem will be that we will have to exterminate it ourselves”, that is, by vaccinating as widely as possible.
