Austria has confirmed that it is barring those who have not received Covid shots from cafes, restaurants and hairdressers due to what they say is an increase in infections.
Around 64% of Austria’s population is said to have taken the jabs but Freedom Party, the third-biggest party in parliament and many more have said they will not be going along with it.
“The evolution is exceptional and the occupancies of intensive-care beds are increasing significantly faster than we had expected.
These include barring the unjabbed from hotels, events of more than 25 people and, importantly for a country that is a winter sports hotspot, ski lifts.
While those dining out will have to show they have been jabbed, the waiters serving them will not.
“One is a leisure activity undertaken voluntarily. No one forces me to go to the cinema or the restaurant. The other is my place of work,” Schallenberg said.
