Angela Merkel Urges Tougher Curbs To Battle Germany's 4th Covid Wave

Covid In Germany: Germany reported 30,643 new cases of COVID-19 on Monday and 62 deaths, with an incidence - the number of cases per 100,000 people over a week - of 386.5, a 15th consecutive day of record numbers.
Germany's acting Chancellor Angela Merkel told leaders of her conservative party that measures being taken to stop the spread of the coronavirus in Europe's biggest economy were insufficient and that stronger action needed to be taken.

"We are in a highly dramatic situation. What is in place now is not sufficient," she told CDU leaders in a meeting, according to two participants.

Case numbers in Germany have been soaring, especially among the elderly whose first two shots of COVID-19 vaccine were at the start of the year, and among children that are not eligible for inoculation.

Some 79% of adults in Germany have had two shots of COVID-19 vaccine, but only 7.5% have received booster shots so far, as the total number of coronavirus deaths in Germany approaches 100,000.

Germany has already decided to limit large parts of public life in areas where hospitals are becoming full of COVID-19 patients to those who have either been vaccinated or have recovered from the illness.

But Merkel said neither those measures nor a higher uptake of vaccinations would be enough to halt the rapid rise of infections in the short run. She called on Germany's 16 federal states to decide tough measures by Wednesday.

Neighbouring Austria imposed a full COVID-19 lockdown on Monday, and German acting Health Minister Jens Spahn warned on Friday that Germany may follow.

Germany reported 30,643 new cases of COVID-19 on Monday and 62 deaths, with an incidence - the number of cases per 100,000 people over a week - of 386.5, a 15th consecutive day of record numbers.

Forget ELBA. -> Nuremberg -> to be hanged publicly. AND THEY F'in KNOW IT WILL HAPPEN!
These Idiots push and push and push to fulfil on their last breath the mission(s) their masters have given them...though "we" already won.
Unfortunately it will take still loooong time until we will see the reseults of this win. Until then....they continue to push their populations more than ever.
Especially Germany...if anyone should ask how they could let have happend what happend in the 1930s 40s...well....look at Germany now..THAT is EXACTLY how it was happening.
On the other hand look at Israel...they are doomed to be the eternal victims and guinea pigs...also voluntarily.

Its time for the famous asteroid to hit the planet. If this is what we are living through in our lives, is really what we "are here for"..then it is a more than sad existence and absoluteley unjustified. -> Death Murder Kill!
