One last addition: i have been to a east german city recently. When i was there, there was no mask mandate anywhere. Not in malls, not in bars, clubs (which weren‘t even open in other cities at that time). Nowhere, except for public transportation.

While my city was still in „lockdown“, no private meetings with groups bigger than 10, police checking in on private parties, we had 13x the „incidence rate“.

This was one of the cities with the lowest cases in all of germany.

I wonder how that‘s possible. Might all these measures not be as effective as we hoped? Should we return to accept that life is a risk, thank science for the vaccine, take it or not and live life?

I know it sounds bad, but to me, this whole pandemic politic still seems fishy.

Whan was "recently"? This time the wave started later in East Germany than West Germany, but since a week or so it seems to catch up. One reason could be that school holidays ended earlier in West German states (although in 2020 this didn't seem to make a difference).
