Austria introduced a lockdown for the unvaccinated on Monday, November 15, allowing only the vaccinated or those who have recovered from COVID-19 to enter establishments of non-essential nature. However, infections have continued to rise dramatically, especially in the provinces of Salzburg and Upper Austria, inducing the government to impose the measures on all citizens. The lockdown for all citizens will start from Monday, November 22, and will be evaluated after 10 days. Austrian Chancellor Alexander Schallenberg said on Friday there would also be a legal requirement to get vaccinated against COVID-19 from February 1, 2022. Europe is currently experiencing a fourth wave of the coronavirus, registering record-high numbers of new infections daily. #Austria #Vienna #antirestrictionprotest Video ID: 20211120-030
