Far-right political party, AfD, denounces Corona bill as hazardous
The Alternative for Germany (AfD) has voiced strong opposition to the tightening of coronavirus regulations proposed by the Chancellery, labeling the measures as "unacceptable" and "dangerous."
AfD deputy federal spokesman Stephan Brandner led the criticism, stating that the proposed regulations are a step towards a quasi-dictatorial rule. He expressed concern over the increasing intrusion into the private lives of citizens, urging an immediate halt to such practices.
The draft resolution, which has been circulating since Sunday evening, stipulates that from now on, public meetings can only include members of one's own household and a maximum of two people from another household. Brandner made no further statements regarding specific measures proposed in the draft resolution.
The new infection figures published by the RKI on Monday showed a 19 percent decrease compared to the value from the previous Monday. This decrease in new infections has automatically lowered the nationwide incidence, which takes into account the new infections of the past seven days.
Despite the decrease in new infections, the draft resolution states that a decrease in new infections is not yet foreseeable. Brandner has also stated that ever deeper incursions into the private lives of citizens are not tolerable.
The AfD, however, has not provided any alternative proposals for managing the coronavirus pandemic. This has raised questions about the party's stance on the matter and their ability to offer viable solutions.
The criticism from the AfD comes at a time when Germany is grappling with rising coronavirus cases and the need for stricter regulations to curb the spread of the virus. The Chancellery and health authorities will need to balance the need for public health with the concerns of civil liberties as they navigate this challenging period.
