Closing the circle to aggregate power and control.

Exiting Chancellor Angela Merkel announced on Dec. 2 that Germany will lock down unvaccinated people as top officials also signaled that they would back plans for mandatory vaccinations in the coming months.

Merkel said individuals who aren’t vaccinated for COVID-19 will be excluded from nonessential stores and cultural and recreational venues. The Bundestag, Germany’s Parliament, also will consider a general vaccination mandate.

“The situation is our country is serious,” she told reporters, claiming that the new measures are an “act of national solidarity.”

Other new requirements include masks being required in schools, Merkel added. Vaccinated people will lose their vaccination status nine months after receiving their last dose of a vaccine.

“We have understood that the situation is very serious and that we want to take further measures in addition to those already taken,” Merkel, who was slated to leave office on Dec. 2, told reporters. “The fourth wave must be broken and this has not yet been achieved.”

In her address, Merkel said the mandatory vaccination measure would take effect in February 2022 and said she would vote in favor of the rule if she were still in the Bundestag.

Numerous studies have shown that fully vaccinated people still have the ability to transmit and contract COVID-19, although some health officials have said that vaccines can protect better against severe symptoms, hospitalization, and death. On Dec. 2, the Minnesota Department of Health confirmed that the second U.S. case of the Omicron COVID-19 variant was a fully vaccinated male.

Critics of vaccine passport systems, which have drawn weekly protests across Europe, have said they unjustly create a two-tiered society of vaccinated and unvaccinated people. Concerns have been raised about whether vaccine passports could be expanded to become a “social credit” system and whether the mass collection of vaccination data could breach individual privacy rights.

In recent weeks, Austria and Greece have announced that vaccinations will be mandatory for everyone aged 60 and older. Those who refuse to get vaccinated will face fines for each passing month, the Greek government stated earlier this week.

However, such rules may be extended to other EU countries, said European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen on Dec. 1.

“Two or three years ago, I would never have thought to witness what we see right now, that we have this … pandemic. We have the vaccines, the life-saving vaccines, but they are not being used adequately everywhere,” von der Leyen said, stating that EU authorities have to “potentially think about mandatory vaccination.”

According to Germany’s health agency, about 68.7 percent of the country’s population is fully vaccinated.

Last week, the United States issued a travel advisory for Germany due to the increasing number of COVID-19 cases in the country. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention now considers Germany as a “Level Four: Very High” travel risk, and it called on Americans to avoid traveling there.

Interesting...but I see no one is mentioning how one of your California locales is enforcing mandatory mask wearing in the citizens own home.

Look hard enough and there are issues everywhere, and plenty to point the finger.

I had this discussion earlier tonight with a local liberal… the vaccines only (supposedly) work to help mitigate the “severe” effects of the virus…we all know, or should know, that’s not always the case… even if the vaccines work at mitigating severe symptoms, they do nothing to keep you from infecting others if you become infected…an argument can be made that mitigating the symptoms might actually be responsible for faster spread of the disease because the infected might not feel ill enough to get tested or quarantine themselves… the bottom line for me is that everybody alive will eventually catch the virus, because it’s here to stay…… get over it…

Ive been telling everybody for months that the vexed would be the worst spreaders because of less symptoms. With every new variant that comes up they will spread that also. Edk

I am now vaxed and would suggest that there is more likely-hood of milder symptoms allowing those who are vaxed to be out and about to pass the damned virus on.
Those who are unvaxed have more to fear from the vaxed than the other way round.

I've had the shots, but mandates in my book are a real case of government overreach. I'll verbally admit to the shots, but I'm not going to show papers to anyone.

Yep you are vaxed, you can spread more prolific than ever before. You also have the ability for mutations of the civic virus to mutate and you to spread

There is a recent thread on it in the campfire, it didn't get much notice as most were too busy bitching about Australia instead of looking to their own back yard.
