The streets of Vienna (Austria) are almost empty, Monday November 22. From now on, it is no longer possible to have a coffee on the terrace or to have your hair cut. Since midnight, general confinement has been decree until December 13. For the 9 million inhabitants of the country, it is forbidden to go out except to go to work, to go shopping or to seek treatment. “Honestly, physically and mentally, I’m at my end“, explains a young resident of Vienna.
To stop the epidemic, Austria will take a radical measure: vaccination will be compulsory from February 1, 2022.
