Styrian Governor Hermann Schützenhöfer (VP) finds clear words in the “Kurier” interview about the carelessness of the people and wants to intervene.
The increasing number of new corona infections in Austria also worries the Governor of Styria, Hermann Schützenhöfer. The main concern of the political vice president at the moment is “the carelessness of the people,” he says. An earlier curfew brings nothing, “except a psychological effect.” Instead, he watches private parties with growing concern. As reported, there was recently a youth party in Styria, which attracted 36 infected people, including classmates, teachers and family members. The teens lied to contact tracing, which spreads the virus.
“If the excesses are celebrated at private parties in a basement or in a garden shed, you have to be able to fix it.”
National solidarity is required
Now Schützenhöfer, who knows he has to obey the law, wants more opportunities. Because: With such health challenges, there are restrictions on freedom. “And I am in favor of restrictions where they can be explained,” Schützenhöfer confided to the “messenger”. “I don’t want to look at the bedroom, but when excesses are celebrated at private parties in a basement or in a garden shed, you have to be able to solve it. For certain cases, for certain hours. I am in favor of looking for a constitutionally viable way here. . “
As he adds in the newspaper (Monday edition), he would like to “involve the other parties” in this process. His appeal in the “Kurier” is also directed to Vienna: “We are trying that in Styria, and I would like that also from the federal level. I am also of the opinion that the ÖVP and the SPÖ have not yet served their purposes together. At the beginning of the crisis we had solidarity in parliament, which we have now lost. “
