an additional turn of the screw on the vaccination pass

Germany is reaching a new milestone in its strategy to fight the spread of Covid-19: a vaccination schedule is no longer enough to access certain places, the Germans are also asked to provide a negative test. “Some Germans believe that this is starting to do a lot, that it is a duplicate measure”, details Laurent Desbonnets, live from the German capital for 19/20. It is especially people who are fully vaccinated who find it difficult to accept this additional measure to go to restaurants, the movies or to attend concerts.

“Overall, the measure is still fairly well accepted, it is seen by many as an additional security, preferable to the closure of restaurants in particular”, continues the journalist. Still difficult for the moment to know if this new rule works since it is not generalized in all the regions of the country.
