Yikes! I am extra thankful that I do not live in places like Germany right now as they mandate the COVID-19 vaccine and take away freedoms from those who have yet to receive the experimental jab.
Chancellor Angela Merkel's chief of staff, Helge Braun, told local newspaper Bild am Sonntag that while he does not expect another lockdown, unvaccinated people may be banned from entering public venues such as restaurants, stadiums, and movie theaters.
He said that “vaccinated people will definitely have more freedoms than unvaccinated people," and added that “the state has the responsibility to protect the health of its citizens.”
Breitbart reports:
His comments fueled a debate in German politics about potential vaccination requirements. The issue has proven divisive, even within Merkel’s own Christian Democrats party. Its candidate to replace Merkel as Germany’s leader, Armin Laschet, said he opposes any formal or informal vaccine requirements for the time being.
“I don’t believe in compulsory vaccinations and I don’t believe we should put indirect pressure on people to get vaccinated,” he told the German broadcaster ZDF on Sunday. “In a free country there are rights to freedom, not just for specific groups.”
If Germany’s vaccination rates remain too low this fall, other options could be considered, Laschet said, adding “but not now.”
With the highly transmissible delta variant spreading in Germany, politicians have debated the possibility of compulsory vaccinations for specific professions, including medical workers. No such requirements have been implemented yet.
In the United States, we still have the freedom to choose what is injected into our bodies. I pray it stays that way.
