VIENNA (Reuters) - Thousands of people marched through Vienna on Saturday to protest against restrictions on public life designed to curb the coronavirus pandemic, just as Chancellor Sebastian Kurz’s government held talks about extending the measures.

Chanting demonstrators - many without masks - held signs including “Kurz Must Go” and “Make Influenza Great Again” during marches through the city centre.

Austria, a country of 8.9 million people, is in its third lockdown, with only essential shops open. The country has reported nearly 390,00 coronavirus cases and almost 7,000 COVID-19 linked deaths since the pandemic began last year.

Public health experts said after meeting government officials that infection rates were too high to consider easing restrictions at this point. The government was due to announce its next steps on Sunday.

You are suffering from hallucinations. COVID-19 has resulted in a sharp increase in mental illness in USA. Those whom think politics, especially far alt right candidates are admirable is a reflection of your inner neurosis, especially after the events of Jan 6th, 2021, when a madman tried to overthrow the USA Goverment.

I suggest you seek help for your psychosis.

You are not a true believer. Look within the confines of the crux. Your shallow denunciation of the evil powers is empty. We shall overcome. We shall burn America to the ground and be glorious.

When the new leaders of the GOP are now out saying there was no September 11th, no Sandy Hook School Shootings, no massacre at Parkland School in Florida and now "Space Lasers Cause California Fires" this is the future of the GOP. Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene are the new figureheads, and its no wonder the GOP is self destructing. Such destruction is spectacular, the party will never be the same, nor is it likely to win in 2022 or 2024 with people like this. OUCH

COVID-19: Macron defends decision not to order third lockdown as third wave spreads

PARIS: President Emmanuel Macron defended his decision to hold off on a third lockdown on Saturday (Jan 30), telling the public he had faith in their ability to rein in COVID-19 with less severe curbs even as a third wave spreads and the vaccine rollout falters.

From Sunday, France will close it borders to all but essential travel to and from countries outside the European Union, while arrivals from within the bloc will have to show a negative test. Large shopping malls will be shut and police patrols increased to enforce a 6 pm curfew.

But Macron has stopped short of ordering a new daytime lockdown, saying he wants to see first if other measures will be enough to slow the spread of the coronavirus.

With 10 per cent of cases now attributable to the more contagious variant first found in Britain, senior medics have recommended a new lockdown, and one opinion poll showed more than three quarters of French people think one is now inevitable. The poll also showed falling public confidence in the government's handling of the crisis.

"I have trust in us. These hours that we are living through are crucial. Let's do all we can to slow the epidemic together," Macron tweeted.

Government advisers judged that the slower-than-expected spread of a contagious variant first detected in Britain meant there was no risk in delaying the decision on a lockdown by a week, Health Minister Olivier Veran told the Journal du Dimanche.

But he added action would be swift if the virus started spreading faster: "We never said we would not impose a lockdown in the next two weeks if necessary."

Macron has also been under fire for rolling out vaccines at a slower pace than other big EU countries, and far slower than Britain or the United States. France's latest figures showed it had given just 1.45 million vaccine doses so far. Britain, by comparison, has recorded 8.4 million.

France reported 24,393 new COVID-19 infections on Saturday while the number of COVID-19 patients in hospital stayed above 27,000 for a fifth straight day.

The rate of new infections is still lower than it was when the last lockdown was ordered in October, but hospitalisation rates are already comparable.

Paris resident Sami Terki said it was "a good thing for now - even mentally - to not have to go through a new lockdown". But he added: "My only concern is that we then take the decision to lockdown too late."

The public health authority said the number of COVID-19 patients in intensive care dipped slightly to 3,113. In a sign of the pressure on hospitals, two critically-ill COVID sufferers were airlifted from Marseille to the western Brittany region on Friday.

Professor Dominique Rossi, who heads the Marseille Hospitals’ Medical Commission, said the local heath authority had asked hospitals in the Bouche-du-Rhone area to cancel 40per cent of all non-urgent medical interventions.

Managing the flow of COVID and non-COVID patients was "a real ethical headache", he told Reuters. "The (COVID-19) projections are really worrying and the lack of personnel, who are already exhausted, adds another element of concern."

All these lame leaders who are trying to stop a virus from spreading should read the story of King Canute https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_Canute_and_the_tide

The tide and the virus have scant respect for the wishes of mortals. They will do what they have always done for millions of years.

It's the kiasi ppl that are causing the problems because they put pressure on the powers that be or support them in trying to put the virus down

 

[Leongsam]

Almost 60 million people die each year.

The figure for those that died of/with Covid now stands at 2.2 million over the course of a year which is a mere 3.6% of total annual deaths. It's a minuscule number in the overall mortality picture.

Bearing in mind that the figure is inflated by classifying those that died of something else but had tested positive for the virus were classified as Covid deaths and you'll find the number of real Covid deaths is far lower which means that genuine Covid deaths could be less than 2% of total deaths.

I do not personally know anyone who has died of Covid but I am still mourning the loss of friends that have died from cancer and heart attacks.

Numerous well known old farts have caught Covid and they're all still around including Trump, Boris Johnson, Tom Hanks and other so called celebrities.

This whole thing is just one big nothing burger and one of the biggest con jobs in the history of mankind.

French lockdown is slmost similar to sinkies. Lorry drivers stuck at border checkpoints unless they have been tested negative for covid.

assuming you are right, to what end is this con trying to achieve?

it can't be pharma money coz a couple of billions is really a drop compared to what the feds can print in an instant.

or are you saying it started on a slow news day and became a beast unto itself?

This whole Covid saga started off when the Dems realised that they could blame Trump for everything. It spiraled downward from there as more and more governments caught on that the pandemic could be used to their political advantage NZ included.

Big Pharma joined the party as governments around the world started to sign vaccine agreements for vaccines that hadn't even been brought to market.

Big Tech? Tell me which tech company has not benefited from lockdowns, work from home orders and a surge of on line activity from captive humans who were not allowed out of their rooms. All this required new computers, faster connections, webcams etc which in turn required more servers, routers, cables, cooling/heating and so on.

The majority of people are sheep which is what makes it so easy to herd them into submission.
