German Government Pitches Plan To Reimpose Harsh Lockdown Measures

ER Editor: And, of course, the fake PCR test is pivotal to these arbitrary numbers (100 cases minimum over a 7-day period, or 14.3 cases per day) being obtained with which to implement these absurd measures. We issue a slight MSM-warning for Zerohedge‘s coverage of this virus crisis as it has a tendency to buy into the prevailing covid hype.

German Government Pitches Plan To Reimpose Harsh Lockdown Measures

After canceling Germany’s draconian Easter lockdown last month, German Chancellor Angela Merkel “took full responsibility” for her misjudgment. But, now it looks like her government is reverting to the decision that new COVID-19 restrictions need to be put in place, before spiking (ER: really?) COVID cases lead to a surfeit of deaths.

A new proposed plan has been developed to implement nighttime curfews, sweeping business closures and severe limits on public gatherings. These measures, and more, are all part of the German government’s new bill aimed at “standardizing” COVID-19 measures to stop the third wave.

RT reports that Berlin is currently working on amendments to the national Infection Protection Act, which would reimpose lockdown restrictions and greatly reduce the federal states’ ability to defy the government’s orders, German media that obtained the draft document report.

The document that is expected to be discussed and potentially approved by Chancellor Angela Merkel’s cabinet on Tuesday will require all federal states where an average seven-day COVID-19 infection rate will rise over 100 per 100K people.

Such states will no longer be able to find any excuses to avoid imposing the so-called “emergency brake.”

All states over this threshold infection rate will be bound to introduce a standard set of measures developed by the federal government, should the legislation come into force. Such measures involve a night-time curfew between 2100ET and 0500ET, with exceptions made for medical emergencies, professional activities and for people engaged in caregiving, whether for other people or animals. (ER: This sounds a lot like France currently.)

If adopted, the new measures would impact all German federal states. According to the Robert Koch Institute (Germany’s federal agency responsible for disease control and prevention), only three out of 16 federal states have a seven-day incidence rate below 100 per 100K people. In the western state of Saarland, this rate is 98.8, which means it could potentially cross the threshold at any moment. German authorities are seemingly aiming to implement the new rules as soon as possible.

According to some media reports, Merkel’s federal cabinet and the states’ governments had all assented to the bill.

The German Bundestag President Wolfgang Schauble also made it clear that the parliament could potentially approve the new bill as early as next week. The legislation would then need to pass through the Bundestag, another house of the German parliament representing the federal states, and can come into force as early as April 19, according to some media reports.

  1. Zerohedge takes its news from reuters and bloomberg …

    merkel has destroyed germany, she’s never been elected with aclear majority except the first years. She’s been in power longer than Hitler and has remained only thru colaitions with marxist parties (greens, spd, linke, etc..).
    She has destoyed the CDU from inside. She’s a communist deepdown.

    The media in germany are some of the most corrupt in the world with zero credibility, lies and propaganda.

    Where are the lawsuits against this crazy bitch?

    The germans should revolt and take her out (physically)
