The 2nd of November marks the official start of new anti-corona measures here in the Netherlands. I would say more anti-unvaccinated measures, since this group is more a scapegoat now for all the failures in the Government actions.
So the same shit like one year ago happens now: (cosmetic but ineffective) face masks are mandatory again in pretty much every places, the continuing requirement of a corona pas for access to the cafe terraces, restaurants, museums, events, etc. The same apocalyptic situation described by the officials. And all is happening because around 15% of the population is not vaccinated. Official word.
Meanwhile, in a visual way:
Keep in mind that all these infected people are there on the base of corona pas (so vaccinated or tested negative).
The current ex-health minister* Hugo de Jonge is also preaching good stuff:
Most patients are not vaccinated, and they did not need to be there if they had been
They stopped to say exactly how much is "most", since last time it was around 25% vaccinated ones**. Probably over time this number will raise, since statistically speaking there is a ratio on 8:1 in the favor of the vaccinated. Check Israel case where the vaccination rate is insanely high.
Think about it again, do it for yourself, for your neighbour, for your grandmother.
Well, I guess everyone thought already about this. And anyone who wanted to be vaccinated already did. But to do it in order to protect other (already) vaccinated people, that sounds crazy. These days is most likely that most infections are generated by vaccinated people (again >80% of the population), since the vaccines are doing quite a lousy job in protecting the transmission of the virus. And since they degrade over time, it's less and less protection there. But let's continue to blame the unvaccinated!
The next step will be probably requiring QR codes to be allowed to work (basically to be vaccinated if you want to make a living).
And last, but not at least, the great minister Rutte:
Saying you can’t go in [because you are not vaccinated] is not in our plans, but you can’t rule it out in the future
You can’t rule it out in the future.
The segregation (apartheid) is now open season.
And by the way, the third shot is now officially promoted, so soon the definition for fully vaccinated will probably change.
