Thanks to 50,000 AUSTRIA readers for the start
Nobody expected this success: more than 50,000 ÖSTERREICH readers took part in the big “vaccination lottery” from ÖSTERREICH and oe24 on the very first day.
An action against Corona could hardly start more impressively. Our people have given a clear signal for the vaccination – but also issued a reprimand for our politicians.
It is remarkablethat a media company – and not our government – is launching a new vaccination offensive.
Also this weekend there was no sign of a government vaccination campaign anywhere. Health minister and chancellor have gone into hiding – our politics seem paralyzed in this fourth corona wave.
Austria NOW needs a major vaccination offensive and a clear corona strategy.
Our neighbours, the Italians are just showing us how it’s done: From October onwards they will make the “Green Pass” on the mobile phone compulsory for the workplace. Means: In Italy only those who are vaccinated will be allowed to work. All non-vaccinated people get tested every two days at their own expense. This has led to a mass rush on the vaccination centers in Italy this weekend. That’s how you do it!
Perhaps our “vaccination lottery” is also a small call to the government to start the urgently needed vaccination campaign – and finally to set the signals like in Italy that lead to a run on the vaccination centers. It would be so easy …
Because: Our “Vaccination Lottery” shows how enthusiastic one can get Austrians about vaccination when they die.
