Austria
has announced that from August, it will relax corona restrictions and permit events
of up to 1000 participants.
Somehow,
I cannot believe, that this decision is not the result of hard lobbying on
behalf of Salzburg whose annual festival (this year the 100th anniversary!)
runs from the the second half of July to the end of August.
Austria,
the country that gave us Ischgl, source of corona contamination this winter,
is now preparing a similar hotspot for the summer. An important difference is
that whereas the hundreds of skiers, who returned to Germany from their skiing holiday in
Ischgl, infected with the virus, were mainly young, most Salzburg Festival
visitors are old.
But
why should we expect Austria to be more ethical than China?
