Austria says only the rich can go unvaccinated for £12,000 a year

Pause for a moment to notice what’s going on in Austria. Next year, if Austrians decide to hold off on getting an experimental vaccine it will cost £1,000 a month or £12,000 a year. The charge even applies to children as young as 14. For a family of four with high-school age children, we’re talking about an extraordinary £50,000 a year ($100,000 Australian pa). If people can’t or won’t pay, the penalty is up to one year in prison.

People with private jets will be fine of course, it’s just a weekends worth of fuel. They’ll be able to choose their doctors, their treatment and keep their jobs, or  maybe fly to Iran and get a good Australian vax instead?

As many as a third of the Austrian population is still not vaccinated. They are currently locked down while vaccinated people have been released from lockdown. In House arrest?

It’s an extraordinary, panicked, totalitarian move.

At what point do thousands of Austrians flee their homeland as political refugees seeking asylum from medical experiments?

Or perhaps that’s a feature — getting rid of those pesky independent voters?

Austrians aged 14 and over who refuse Covid vaccines will be fined £1,000 per month as Vienna rolls out a jab mandate to last until 2024

Daily Mail

Austrians aged 14 and over who refuse Covid-19 vaccinations will be fined £1,000 per month as Vienna rolls out a jab mandate to last until 2024.

The country’s conservative-led government on Thursday announced the details of its plan to make coronavirus vaccines compulsory, as the country prepares to to end its lockdown on Sunday, that was announced last month.

Roughly 68 percent of Austria’s population is fully vaccinated against COVID-19, one of the lowest rates in western Europe. Many Austrians are sceptical about vaccines, a view encouraged by the far-right Freedom Party, the third biggest in parliament.

Health Minister Wolfgang Mueckstein says this is not about punishment.

‘I say very clearly that we don’t want to punish the people who aren’t vaccinated. We want to bring them along, we want to convince them of this vaccination and we want them to show solidarity with everyone so that we can regain our freedom.’

It will start in 2022. The two opposition parties support it

Alexander Tschugguel says Austria is turning into a police state:

    So they plan to force an injection, which does not work, on the entire population. This is madness but Austria did supply the World with a certain totalitarian politician in the early 20th century.

      Gerry I notice WA has announced you can come in from overseas unvaxxed but you will have to quarantine at a facility of there choice for 14 days , but if you want to travel from another state in Oz to WA and are unvaxxed you will be denied entry . Of course this is all because of the science !

        robert. An interesting aspect of the Qld “reopening” is the dual claim that the vaxed are being protected, and the unvaxed as well, since they are far more likely to be harmed by Covid19. This latter is thrown up by many when the sham that the vaxed face “danger” from the unvaxed is debunked….

        OK, so an unvaxed RESIDENT goes back to Qld and is stopped. He/she then says “I’ll do the 14 days, and pay the $3000”. Then, a few days after that finishes, the unvaxed resident who is now back in Qld picks SARS-CoV2 up from one of the vaxed and we’re back to where we would have been if no Quarantine had taken place.

        Just BS from start to finish.

      In Vicdanistan there is a already strong discrimination against the unvaxxed and this is utterly ignored by the lamestream media.

      The unvaxxed are not allowed to work, trade, visit public venues such as restaurants or sports stadia etc..

      If you are unvaxxed you can’t even legally get a haircut.

      The unvaxxed are only allowed to attend food stores such as supermarkets, buy fuel and buy medicine (But not work at such places). Even attending a doctor or hospital is problematic although still doable (for now).

      The silence about the plight of the unvaxxed is deafening.

      The discrinatory arrangements against the unvaxxed are permanent.

        It’s bad in principle, but of late I’ve kinda lost the desire to be in places where too many vaxed are gathered.

        Like visiting Ukraine in May 1986 and being told that everyone in a certain venue had been at Chernobyl during the meltdown. As a pure-blood I don’t think I should get too close to the contaminated if i can avoid it!

        BTW: Up until the 17th in Qld you have had to guess whether the others in a pub were vaxed or not (simple test: what’s 1×1? and if they get it wrong….usually answer “2”…..they are vaxed). From Friday we’ll know for sure without needing to uncover the brain-clot damage!

          The intention is to disappear the “control group” which will display….is already displaying…a stunning lack of organ failure and sudden death, vs the mass-dying now underway with the injected. Pfizer and co famously did this with the control groups in their slap-dash trials of the gene-interventions, did they not?

          On a personal note: was talking to an older lady I only see about once a year or two who got her second shot of AZ in July and is now being rushed to get a Pfizer booster BY HER GP. The old dear is all for it, as she “feels very unwell lately. Always puffing and wheezing and feeling dizzy”. Sure she’s old, but I reckon she won’t see 2022, with the third shot at the end of this week..

    Give the Australian Labor party half a chance & they’ll happily head down the same ideological path as well.

It can only end badly as the evil in the world keeps growing unabated by the bad people who are so sinister that if they were ever exposed for what and who they really are, most people would be shocked with many refusing to believe it. A common misconception is that evil people are not clever. They are very clever indeed and that’s the main reason why they get their way so easily.

    It gets worse. According to Fauci families ought to check on each other for the vaccination status before meeting at Christmas. Dividing families has been a favourite tactic by the left. It really is past the time for people to start thinking for themselves and ignore ALL of the advice of the likes of Fauci and our own politicians. Passive resistance could have been the best way to put a stop to all this madness but it’s too late now. Too many are already too far gone and taken aboard the scam, hook, line and sinker. Oh well, the next phase is civil unrest. It’s very likely inevitable.

    So Austria just came out of a Sept 2021 election, which means the citizens have 5ish years before being able to vote out these parties/coalitions.

    1)That’s a long time for the govt. to consolidate their power.

    OR

    2) There’s a 30% base against CoVid vaccines etc. So the question is, how many of the 70% vaccinated did so reluctantly and will refuse the booster?

    From an economic standpoint you can’t remove/fine 30% of your population without total economic collapse. As well this could all be moot in 2 months when Omicron does its thing.

    I’m betting on 2).

    230

    • #
      PeterS

      Governments are hooked on their power trips and they will stop at nothing to consolidate and increase their power. So, it matters very little as to how many will refuse to take their booster shots. The more resistance there is the more the governments will consolidate and increase their powers. In fact they probably look forward to the resistance to give them the excuses they need to become more tyrannical. It’s a vicious circle, one that will inevitably get out of control and all bets are off.

        Good points Peter, although I think we are seeing this more the same way than opposite. Your last sentence: “It’s a vicious circle, one that will inevitably get out of control and all bets are off.”, is why I’m saying 2)

        The pushback will certainly come from ways other than boosters no doubt, but that is a very easy way for people to fight back.

        I have been put on administrative leave for refusing to get vaccinated. I only represent 3-4% of my employment group. What shocked me was that the overwhelming majority of my co-workers support and respect me. There are always those that need to go first. They tend to get crushed by authority. It’s when the second wave of dissent hits (if enough) that things change. I/we can only hope.

          Yes, the vicious circle is in play at the moment and will remain in play for as long as the despots are in full control. Voters keep handing them majority rule so there is no end in sight. At some point though the people will have enough and rise up. That’s some ways away. It could so easily be stopped if people used their brains and stopped voting for the despots ahead of the minor parties that stand against tyranny. It’s a simple decision to make yet most people don’t see it that way. Perhaps as some say most people like to be told what to think and do as they are too lazy to do it for themselves, so they don’t mind living under a dictatorship as long as they get their toys to play with (along the way to the sacrificial alter). Very sad if true.

          You’ve made a difficult choice there Mark, but under the constant stream of reports about adverse VaXXine reactions, it’s justified.
          In my limited covid cramped social circle there are seven people whose adverse VaXX reactions ranged from life threatening to just an uncomfortable twenty four hours in bed.
          The longer term, postponed damage is also a significant thing to face.

            Thank you for the support Keith. Initially my refusal was all based on medical information (still is, especially the Swedish study that Jo posted a few weeks back). I was fortunate enough to work from home and was taking a “wait and see” approach. But once the vaccine mandate came in I realized it’s much more than that now.

      LNP and ALP have most certainly been in it together on both the vaccination scam and the CAGW scam for the past couple of years. If voters keep voting for them then it means they too are in it together. That leaves a small percentage of voters who refuse to be “in it together” by wisely refusing to vote 1 for either major party. Anyone disagree?

    It has already started here. Come Friday, I am banned from seeing my 92 year old Mother in aged care.

    Only the double vaxxed and preferably boosted will be allowed entry…and they have to wear a mask ( If the vaccines work, why the mask ? ). I have no idea how long this inhumane treatment will last, but as my Mum has Alzheimer’s, the enforced separation will only do her immeasurable harm.

    The constitution and the Nuremberg code seem to have been totally ignored by our political masters and not one whimper of complaint from a human rights lawyer.

    I’m guessing there are about 3 million or so unvaxxed in this Country, and that number may increase as people refuse the boosters. We have to stay strong and tell the politicians where they can stuff their ” vaccines “. I doubt they will be able to build enough Camps for all of us.

      There is only one sure way to tell the politicians where they can stuff the vaccines. Place ALP, Greens, Libs and Nats at the bottom of the list of choices at the next elections.

        Removing her from care means you lose your place and go to the end of the Que.

          I am still seething that my son (unvaxxed) was not able to see his grandmother when she was dying. I was stuck up in QLD and the rapid deterioration meant I was not able to travel. The disgusting policy that stopped him from seeing her is inhumane and evil.

          But it seems that evil and inhumanity is the face of the “be kind” movement that seems to have sprung up. We can only “be kind” to the politically correct. The unvaxxed are animals and thus we can treat them as dogs with impunity.

          When people look back on this period when the histories are written it will be with disgust and amazement that junk or non science took over and we allowed utterly evil bureaucrats and politicians a free hand to do what they wanted, to our detriment

    As Katie Hopkins so eloquently puts it here being true to yourself can be tiring but it makes you tougher and shows you are not telling lies to yourself. In other words, you can keep telling lies to yourself for as long as you like but the stark reality is that as long as voters keep giving majority rule to either LNP or ALP at all levels of government, they will keep becoming more and more tyrannical. If that’s what you prefer then that’s your choice. My choice is not to give them my vote ahead of minor parties who stand apart from such despots as the LNP and ALP+Greens, and instead stand for more freedoms not more tyranny. It’s a very simple decision to make. Sadly, not many see it that way and as a result will very likely end up relinquishing all their freedoms to a tyrannical dictatorship albeit unwillingly. The irony o fit all is that it doesn’t take much muscle power to vote on the ballot way. However, it does give one more strength in another way; strength in the mind knowing that one is not being fooled by officialdom, MSM and the like. I’m the type that calls a spade a spade. So, anyone who votes ALP, LNP or Greens ahead of the right kind of minor parties in the current climate (pun intended) is a fool.

    Protests alone will no longer effect change in Austria.
    Governments all over the world seem to have lost sight of the “thin blue line”.

    It’s not going to be allowed to end so long as the Left or those that follow the Left’s policies such as the conservative-in-name-only government of Austria are in power.

    The dictatorship of various levels of lockdown and control will become a permanent arrangement.

    Other Governments will follow, especially Governments like Australia’s, all of of whom seek to impose more power and control and are committed to the globalist agenda.

    The last time the Austrians gave the world an evil dictator, the world went to war to remove him.

    Things have changed now.

    This time the world will embrace the dictatorship.

    In most western ‘democracies’ these days we have what are essentially beureaucratic governments, i.e. leadership by organisations that are focused on processes, rules and the endless expansion of departments.

    This means that principles matter less than ‘order’, outcomes less than process. It means that the main output of government is more and more rules, more forms, more layers of management and more fussing about minute deviation from the approved procedures. It also leads to governments that are so hindered by their own rules and multiple layers of committees that it is hard to get anything meaningful done, unless of course a rule has been broken – then the hive turns all of its energy into enforcing compliance.

    I have seen the same thing happen to businesses during my working life. Once-efficient, nimble and creative companies become dull behemoths, with way too much inward-looking admin that turns workers into drones. With the creation of every new department comes more rules to follow, more unproductive meetings to attend and more restrictions placed on HOW you do your job. I find Human Resources and Legal to be the most stifling.

    With this comes intolerance, too. Where in the past mistakes were seen as an unavoidable side-effect of creativity and risk was part of life, bureaucratic management simply does not tolerate it. Control is EVERYTHING.

    It also leads to inefficiency through in-fighting, as the heads of the various departments fight for supremacy, each wanting to be top dog and have more control than the others.

    This is what I see more and more with our governments and, just like its parallel in business, it leads to mystifying decisions that appear, to outsiders, as pointless, irrational or downright stupid. But it all makes perfect sense to the bureaucrats.

      Yep, and they all work on the precautionary principle rather than any form of actual risk management. If there’s a slightest chance of risk there will be a policy to address it. Usually drawn up by the most risk adverse workers in the company – the legal division.

        Yet capitalism is about the rewarding of risk-takers, and the company will have grown early on by doing just that.

        It will eventually die, and liberate its employees to join companies with some vigour.

      Excellent post, Steve.

      You are absolutely right. Today, it is all about “process”. For some reason, pollies have allowed their bureaucrats and their dominions to determine policy (on “advice”, of course). I believe it is the source of the many policy debacles of modern political life.

      Yet voters keep turning up at the polls believing that the people and policies they elect will apply the platforms they advocated.

    Just heard on the news that the Federal and Victorian governments have signed a deal with Moderna to manufacture mRNA stuff here in Australia, 100 million doses! The jab is not going away anytime soon. Along with 280 million fizzer ordered, what are they thinking?

    They will not give up in Australia until we are all jabbed multiple time. What means are they going to use here? Fines like those in Austria would be a killer.

    What about covax19? Giving it to Moderna??? The govenment is useless.

    Rise up, Austrians! You can make your country ungovernable by entirely peaceable means if you organise. The manual is Gene Sharp’s “From dictatorship to democracy” and is readily readable for free online. Download it, read it, pass it on. This work was distilled as a how-to manual from the tactics of peaceable civil disorder movements that achieved their objects.

    Watching early morning (Australian time) European News (DW, France, BBC and All Jazzed Up), it is claimed that one person in the UK has died WITH Omicron, and that the South African President has contracted Covid despite being fully vaccinated (or more accurately) jabbed.

    The omicron variant of Covid 19 will rapidly displace the main delta variant.
    This replacement will happen in a few days after omicron gets a start. It might have started already.
    The doubling time for omicron spread in a community is about 2 days.
    Omicron likely started in South Africa, where there are now enough cases to generalise.
    But, South Africa is not the same as Australia. In South Africa, immunity is largely from a history of virus diseases. In Australia, immunity is largely from vaccinations.
    On present data (14 Dec) omicron infects people irrespective of their vaccination history.
    On present data, omicron is rather less serious an illness than delta is/was.
    The big question is, how much less severe? If half as serious, Australia has a bleak future. If a tenth as severe, our hospitals will be tested. If trivial in most cases by far, there can be a positive benefit because of herd immunity. We shall know in a few weeks from now.
    ………………………
    It follows that emphasis on vaccinations is now not required, because omicron will infect essentially all Australians, irrespective of vaccination history.
    Vaccines might give some added protection from severe illness from omicron, but this is not yet certain. Time between vaccination and illness might need to be a month or two before the vaccine loses efficacy. This applies to double vaxed, boosted people.
    As to whether children should be, need to be or must be vaccinated, the question is being asked too early. In a couple of weeks, that should become clearer.
    It is plausible that the best approach for omicron will be to allow people to be infected to acquire national herd immunity faster, consistent with hospitals being able to cope with the smaller number of serious cases.
    ……………………….
    Please read political announcements with these factors in mind. They might be designed to follow a political plan and not the best medical science path.

      the current “vaccines” do not actually give any attenuation of hospitalisation and deaths. This is only shown because of the way that the reporting is done. The UK Health Security Agency reports actually have a 2 week delay after vaxxing built in when reporting deaths. So one can be double jabbed, have a booster and then pass from covid in that intervening 2 weeks and be registered as an unvaxxed death!!!! Yes its true.

      Prof Fenton of Queen Mary University has done a lot of analysis here and basically shows this is one big sleight of hand where in reality there is little attenuation at all from the vaxxes related to deaths. And with Omicron it will be doubly so (even though it appears as if there are few deaths anyway)

      And we have not even considered the grossly under reported vaxx related deaths and permanent disabling occurring. Add them in, particularly if we want to turn people into pin cushions with boosters, and the vaxxing just makes a whole lot of people at no risk from covid sicker and die. The sooner we realise this and cease the mad jabbing the better.

    Complete jerks in the press simply cannot understand what is happening here in Austria and will appear here.

    The West is no longer democratic but a collection of totalitarian despots. Here in QLD we have an arrogant idiot of a Premier who follows no science. A pastor at my church shared with me that his wife, who works in QLD Health actually heard our Premier saying that she knows that the unvaxxed present no risk but she needs to get her vaxx numbers up. So, happy to destroy livelihoods and our society to “get the numbers”. This is who is running the show…

    No logic, no health and no longer any semblance of a democracy.

    There is a Protest in Brisbane on Saturday 18th at 3pm at Musgrave Park on the south side of the City.

    Any who can make it need to put aside other commitments and attend.

    All are impacted as the vaxxed will shortly be declared unvaxxed when the don’t take their completely useless booster.

        I do what is called astandinthepark every Sunday, its spread through social media which I don’t do but some there do, and I ask at the rallies, when is the next.
        If you do social media, the mentioned group is on face book and Telegram, they have not updated their web page since July.

        It is put up by POB and others on this site, when it is known, stay tuned and welcome aboard.

    Just for the record, I am pretty sure that an unvaxxed person in regional NSW has been under a punitive locked down since August. I may have missed it being lifted but that is certainly what John Barilaro proudly announced back way back then and this was re-stated by the Toole shortly after Bruz quit. Gets lifted tomorrow the 15th. We’re not too far behind in the authoritarian madness stakes.

    It’s expected the facility will produce up to 25 million doses each year from 2024, with the ability to scale up to 100 million doses per year to combat future pandemics.
    The latest figures come as Victoria will become home to a mRNA vaccine manufacturing factory under a state government deal with the federal government and Moderna. https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/covid-hospitalisations-surge-in-victoria/ar-AARMnxC
