https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/12/europe/austria-unvaccinated-lockdown-europe-covid-intl/index.html CNN) Austria is days away from ordering millions of unvaccinated people to stay at home, its chancellor has said, in a rare move that underscores the increasing exasperation of European leaders towards those who have not yet been inoculated against Covid-19. |

The regions of Salzburg and Upper Austria will introduce a lockdown for the entire population starting on Monday, which regional leaders said would last for "several weeks" but would hopefully be over by Christmas. There is no longer any alternative than to order a full lockdown in the region, Salzburg’s governor Wilfried Haslauer told a press conference on Thursday afternoon. “We have considered a lockdown to be a significant infringement on the public, but now we are left with no other choice,” he said. The length of the lockdown is not yet confirmed, but Haslauer said it would last at least three weeks, and most likely four. As in previous lockdowns, it would be possible to leave home only for essential purposes including food shopping, exercise, and accessing medical care including vaccinations. Hotels, restaurants and retail stores will close. |

In other measures, the number of people who can meet in a private capacity will be reduced to a maximum of five people from two households, and nightlife venues will close. The rules are due to come into place next Wednesday and to last until December. Shops will be limited to one customer per 10 sq metres of shop space while hairdressers, driving schools, music schools, sporting and cultural events will be restricted to those who can prove they are vaccinated or recovered from Covid-19 as well as produce a negative test result. Restaurants, operating on the same basis, will have to close at 10pm. |
