From 18 to 23 and now 30 percent: When it comes to a specific question from ZDF's monthly “Politbarometer”, Germans apparently change their minds in the corona pandemic.
In the fight against the
second wave
*, the
corona measures are
being tightened again
in Germany
.
A
survey
should show how the Germans take up the restrictions because of the
Sars-CoV-2
virus *.
Very different assessments were made between supporters of the
CDU *
and
CSU *
and the
AfD *
.
Berlin - When one's mind wavers amid the
Corona measures
, people would like to know how others
think or feel about
the
pandemic
.
Surveys
are not hard facts, but they provide clues.
The current
ZDF Politbarometer,
for example, now came to the result: Almost
a third
of Germans would like to see
tougher restrictions
.
30 percent
of those surveyed do not go far enough with the existing measures.
54 percent
consider the measures to be
just right
, 14 percent to be
excessive
.
In September only 18 percent and in October 23 percent were in favor of tougher regulations - although these have since been
tightened
in many places
.
At the same time,
71 percent
demand
that compliance with the measures be
monitored
more closely
.
62 percent
advocate higher
penalties
for violations.
And: only a slim majority of
52 percent
is of the opinion that people are currently
behaving
more sensibly
.

Corona measures in Germany: A clear trend can be seen at private parties
The approval of the individual requirements according to the "Politbarometer" in the overview:
Expansion of the
mask requirement
: 87 percent
Participation limit
at private parties and public meetings: 86 percent (answer: "correct") or 79 percent (at least a positive answer)
Curfew
for bars and restaurants: 54 percent ("correct") versus 42 percent (rejection)
Regardless of the
necessity, a
relatively large number of respondents find the restrictions
annoying
, specifically: when
meeting friends and family
(33 percent), when restricting
cultural and sporting events
(24 percent) and when
traveling
(19 percent).
Is Germany getting through the corona pandemic well?
Survey shows gap between CDU / CSU and AfD
56 percent
of those surveyed believe that their
health is at risk
from the coronavirus.
Nevertheless, a majority is optimistic:
81 percent of
all respondents believe that Germany will get through the pandemic "rather well" overall in the next few months.
Here supporters of the
CDU / CSU were the
most confident with 86 percent, those of the
AfD
with 60 percent the least confident.
The number of new corona infections remains high, for the vast majority of the population this is currently the most important problem in this country.
According to the #ZDFPolitbarometer, over 80 percent of those surveyed are confident that Germany will get through the pandemic rather well.
