Stricter rules for corona vaccinated people?

Even before the Bund-Laender round with Merkel, the topic is fueling the fire.

The left is alarmed.

Berlin - August 10th should be an exciting date not only for unvaccinated people.

During the consultations between Chancellor Angela Merkel * and the Prime Minister, new rules will be debated in what is likely to be the rising fourth Corona * wave.

An extremely controversial topic.

The planned restrictions for people without vaccination protection are causing a stir - but also the planned end of the free rapid tests * from mid-October.

There is a risk of dispute: unlike large parts of the Union, the SPD is against unequal treatment * of those who have been vaccinated / recovered on the one hand and those who have not been tested on the other.

World Medical Chief Frank Ulrich Montgomery, however, thinks this is correct.

World medical chief Montgomery calls for compulsory corona testing for all returnees abroad

Montgomery thinks that unvaccinated people have to accept disadvantages.

“The example of France * shows how well this works.

There you can no longer go to the restaurant or the cinema without a vaccination.

You are only allowed to drive if you have a driver's license, ”he told the

Rheinische Post

.

However, there have recently been massive protests against the corona policy in France.

Politicians must do everything possible to get unvaccinated people to be vaccinated, demanded Montgomery.

"But there are no bonuses, free beer or free sausages, only rights for vaccinated people".

In the

Funke

newspapers on Saturday, he also called for mandatory testing for all travelers returning, including those who have been vaccinated and those who have recovered.

Corona: Lauterbach pleads that unvaccinated people should only be allowed into the restaurant with a PCR test

Karl Lauterbach, on the other hand, wants more precise tests for unvaccinated people.

The SPD * health expert pleaded in the same newspaper that in the case of high incidences there should be an obligation for unvaccinated people to have PCR tests so that they can attend events and go to restaurants.

Lauterbach justified this with the fact that rapid antigen tests gave a false-negative result in many positive cases.

Corona tests soon to be paid for?

SPD leader Esken warns of "rip-off"

She also demanded

a price cap for corona tests

from the

Rheinische Post

on Saturday.

"The state has to intervene to ensure that the unvaccinated people are not ripped off after the free tests are over," warned Esken.

Left * parliamentary group leader Dietmar Bartsch also criticized: "The proposals from the Ministry of Health poison the social climate and divide the country." Prepare two-class society, “said the left-wing top candidate for the federal election * the

RND

newspapers on Saturday.
