From the point of view of the expert in constitutional law, all basic legal requirements for a mandatory vaccination are met: “The measure pursues a legitimate goal, is suitable, necessary and reasonable.” Pestalozza pleaded for a nationwide legal regulation in the Infection Protection Act, in order not to bring individual countries “into difficulty in making decisions”. “Who is subject to vaccination must also be clear on the basis of the Infection Protection Act,” he said. The new Bundestag is called for here.

The fact that a coronavaccination does not protect one hundred percent from the infection, is no reason for legal concerns, so Pestalozza. He has no doubt that courts such as the Federal Constitutional Court see it that way with possible lawsuits. “We cannot wait until the hospitals are overcrowded and the death toll continues to rise. Some politicians pretend that Corona has been defeated,” he criticized.

Twitter discusses mandatory vaccination and 2G rule: Corona vaccination soon mandatory?

The subject of mandatory vaccinations is also currently being discussed on Twitter. On Saturday morning, the hashtag #Impflicht landed in second place on the Twitter trends. As in the past few weeks, proponents and those who refuse to vaccinate have a violent exchange of blows. But people who have been vaccinated twice are also against compulsory vaccination and a 2G rule in Germany. “I am promoting the Covid vaccination. But a compulsory vaccination would be wrong. The vaccination remains an individual decision. We should concentrate on increasing the vaccination rate through more education and mobile teams, a high booster rate and more testing.” , for example, tweeted FDP politician Marco Buschmann.

Vaccinated people speak out against compulsory vaccination on Twitter

“As a person who has been vaccinated twice, I say the following: either you have the guts to introduce compulsory vaccination, which I personally reject, or you finally stop piling up unvaccinated people. Where are we? “, it said in another tweet. “I’m double-vaccinated and won’t use my privileges. The steak would get stuck in my throat in a 2G restaurant and I couldn’t use the toilet for fear of accidentally looking in a mirror. # Vaccination # Corona # Fundamental rights “, said this user against a 2G rule.

More pressure on the unvaccinated? Call for nationwide 2G rule is getting louder

After the tightening of the corona rules in Austria, the call for stronger restrictions for unvaccinated people is also getting louder in Germany. Medical President Klaus Reinhardt demands that in this country only those who have been vaccinated or recovered are allowed to visit restaurants, events or cinemas. The general manager of the German Association of Cities, Helmut Dedy, made a similar statement. SPD health expert Karl Lauterbach calls for the 2G rule to “best apply in all areas that are not part of daily needs like grocery stores or drugstores”.

In the fight against the fourth corona wave, Austria decided on Friday to introduce a nationwide 2G rule. People without a vaccination are no longer allowed to visit bars, hairdressers and events from Monday. The same applies to access to tourist businesses.
