Dementia is spreading further in The Netherlands:
Cabinet introduces 'apartheid pass' for the Netherlands: 'Where is the outrage?'
In addition, as of September 20, hospitality operators and organizers of events, festivals and sporting events will be required to ask for a valid corona admission ticket for gatherings of 75 people or more. This requirement applies both indoors and outdoors.
So if you want to go to the pub for an evening and you are not vaccinated, you will have to pay for a test out of your own pocket. There is much criticism of the announced measures. "While all the media are shouting that the measures will be abolished, the cabinet just introduced the apartheid pass for the Netherlands," writes FVD front man Thierry Baudet.
"From September 20, you will not enter a restaurant or even a terrace, cinema or theater without a QR code. Where is the outrage?" he asks.
According to the cabinet, there is "no question" of a disguised vaccination requirement. Baudet sees this differently. "Vaccination coercion has been the goal from the beginning," he says. "Not for 'public health' - because this whole thing has nothing to do with that - but to gain access to the human body and (thereby) gain total control over people."
De Jonge: pricked people do not need to be tested because it is not good for readiness to be pricked
Healthcare Minister Hugo de Jonge was asked last night during the press conference if he has asked the OMT if Testing for Access should also be a requirement for vaccinated people. So that you should also be tested if you have already been vaccinated twice.
"Yes, there have been a number of statements from a number of virologists that have said something about that, of course, namely you should actually do that, because then it would all become even safer," De Jonge replied.
"But the point is: if you keep doing that, then you have much less attractiveness to get vaccinated, because if you still have to test until Ragnarok before you can go in somewhere, why would you get vaccinated?" he said.
"In short, it doesn't do anything good, is our expectation, with vaccination readiness," De Jonge stressed.
He was then reminded that people who are vaccinated can also spread the virus, according to those virologists. De Jonge: "If you are vaccinated, then of course the chance of you spreading it is not zero, certainly not, you are just also part of the spread of that virus, [...] but you are very much better protected."
Everyone infects everyone, but only unvaccinated people have to test because otherwise it affects vaccination readiness. In other words, vaccination is not a means, but the end in itself. Jurist Kim Boon summarizes: you don't have to test if you're vaccinated because if you did have to get tested if you were vaccinated, you wouldn't get vaccinated.
