Plans to implement stricter regulations for people who have not been vaccinated
For those who have not been vaccinated, stricter coronavirus regulations may soon be introduced again. “If it hits the intensive care unit, you have to take action. It is wrong to have everyone jointly and severally liable, including those who have been vaccinated-that’s why for those who have not been vaccinated and those who have been vaccinated. There will be different regulations,” said the Baden Head of State-Württemberg, Thomas Stroble, The newspaper Bild am Sonntag.
The state’s green-led Ministry of Social Affairs has proposed restricting access to unvaccinated adults and banning restaurants and concerts. According to the report, the Bavarian Minister of Health also supports these proposals. Criticism from the Social Democratic Party and the Liberal Democratic Party.
Patient advocates demand transparency
Patient rights advocates call on hospitals and nursing institutions to have a legal obligation to announce the proportion of vaccinated and convalescent workers. “Patients and those in need of care need transparency in order to be able to assess the risk of infection,” said Eugen Brysch, member of the Board of Directors of the Patient Protection Foundation of the German Editor’s Network. This is particularly important because there are still no mandatory national daily tests for medical and nursing staff.
Brysch pointed out that in many places, only people who have been vaccinated against Covid-19 or have recovered from the disease (2G rule) can enter restaurants or hotels. “But those who need care and patients don’t even know how high the quota of 2G staff in nursing homes or clinics is,” he criticized. Since there are no mandatory tests for employees, clinics and nursing facilities do not even apply 3G (vaccination, rehabilitation, testing).
“This is why the federal government has to provide for the obligation to report the 2G status of caregivers in the Infection Protection Act,” Brysch requested. Then the “2G State Radar” must be published on the service and housing website every day.
