Austria’s leader Chancellor Alexander Schallenberg wants to put unvaccinated Austrians on lockdown.

We can already imagine Tucker Carlson hyperventilating over this. He may be in front of a mirror right now practicing new ways to look indignant.

Maybe Chancellor Schallenberg should go one step further and lock them up – until they belatedly agree to get vaccinated. That would probably give Tucker an aneurysm on the air. 🤯

It’s time to get this pandemic over with. We now have the ability to do so but still lack the will in many places.

“A sixth protester has died after marches against the military takeover that took place across Sudan on Saturday, according to the Central Committee of Sudan Doctors (CCSD) on Sunday.

Iran: 6.3 earthquake kills at least one (CNN)

“At least one person is reported to have died after a 6.3 magnitude earthquake rocked parts of Iran on Sunday.

Austria: Nationwide lockdown for unvaccinated (BBC)

“Austria is placing about 2 million unvaccinated people in lockdown from Monday amid record infection levels and growing pressure on hospitals. "We are not taking this step lightly but it is necessary," Chancellor Alexander Schallenberg said. Unvaccinated people will only be able to leave home for a limited number of reasons, like working or buying food. About 65% of Austria's population is fully vaccinated, one of the lowest rates in western Europe.”

National Native American Heritage Month: White House to host 1st summit of tribal nations since 2016 (AP)

“Leaders from more than 570 tribes in the United States are expected to join the two-day event, with nearly three dozen addressing the gathering. The summit is being held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic that has affected Native Americans and Alaska Natives at disproportionate rates.”

Gun Violence: In gun debate, Rittenhouse verdict unlikely to be last word (AP)

“But on that night in August 2020, Rittenhouse says he took the Smith & Wesson AR-style semi-automatic with him as he volunteered to protect property damaged during protests the previous evening. Before midnight, he used it to shoot three people, killing two. After a roughly two-week trial, a jury will soon deliberate whether Rittenhouse is guilty of charges, including murder, that could send him to prison for life. Was the then-17-year-old forced to act in self-defense while trying to deter crime, as he and his defense attorneys say? Or did Rittenhouse — the only person in a well-armed crowd to shoot anyone — provoke people with his weapon, instigating the bloodshed, as prosecutors argue?”

Syria: US covered up deadly airstrikes in Syria, NYT reports (BBC)

“The US military covered up an attack that killed dozens of civilians in Syria, according to an investigation by the New York Times newspaper. The 2019 attack on so-called Islamic State (IS) fighters killed 80 people - only 16 identified as militants. An independent investigation into the strike was never conducted, according to the New York Times. Officials admitted the bombing for the first time this week, but insisted it had been justified. They said it was unclear if all of those killed aside from the 16 militants had been civilians.”

Covid in Europe (I) - various reports

          The new coronavirus variant Omicron has been detected in 13 people who arrived in the Dutch capital Amsterdam on two flights from South Africa. They are among 61 passengers who tested positive for coronavirus. It comes as tighter restrictions come into force in the Netherlands, amid record Covid cases and concerns over the new variant. This includes early closing times for hospitality and cultural venues, and limits on home gatherings.

          Swiss voters have turned out in near-record numbers for a referendum on the national COVID-19 restrictions. After an unusually tense and hostile campaign, early projections show a majority favor the current law. Under it, only people who have been vaccinated, recovered or tested negative are allowed to attend public events and gatherings. The law also provides billions of Swiss francs in aid for workers and businesses hit by the pandemic. Switzerland is the first European country to put its pandemic measures to a public vote.              France's minister for overseas territories is on his way to Martinique and Guadeloupe, following days of violent protests on the Caribbean islands. The French government has vowed a firm response to the unrest.  Local opposition to COVID-19 measures imposed by Paris, is adding to longstanding grievances over representation and living standards.

             Thousands of people protested in Austria's capital Vienna on Saturday. A day after the country's government announced strict new coronavirus restrictions -- another lockdown, and compulsory vaccination next year.              Noisy crowds, cheering, whistling and banging drums, streamed into Heroes' Square in central Vienna. Many protesters waved flags and carried signs with slogans such as "no to vaccination" and "enough is enough". "I want my freedom back," says this woman. "One would think we live in a democracy but now, this is a coronavirus dictatorship." Roughly 66% of Austria's population is fully vaccinated against COVID-19, one of the lowest rates in western Europe. Daily infections are still setting records there, even after a lockdown was imposed on the unvaccinated this week. That led the government to announce on Friday that Austria would go back into lockdown on Monday - vaccines will be compulsory as of February 1. "We are against the lockdown and the Austrian government policies as far as the coronavirus goes. This has been going on for two years and there is no end in sight. Something new is announced every day and we don't know what we can believe anymore. That's the situation." Many Austrians are skeptical about vaccines, a view encouraged by the Freedom Party (FPO), the third-biggest in parliament. The FPO had already been planning a show of force in Vienna on Saturday when Friday's announcement fired up its base. Although party leader Herbert Kickl could not attend because he has caught COVID-19, thousands answered calls by the FPO and other vaccine-critical groups to protest across the city.

             As many governments tighten restrictions to curb surging coronavirus infections, there's growing anger from opponents of the measures. Tens of thousands have rallied across Europe. Campaigners say authorities are failing to strike the right balance between protecting public health - and upholding personal freedoms. Thousands of Austrians chanting 'resistance' marched through the streets of Vienna in reaction to the latest government measures: compulsory vaccinations and a new national lockdown. The protesters are outnumbered though - by active COVID-19 cases in Austria, which total nearly 200,000. The government says the lockdown and compulsory vaccinations are the only way to stop hospitals being overwhelmed. As winter bites in Europe, cases are surging, compelling governments to act. But also sparking more and more protests. Thousands turned out in Croatia to express their anger. Protests in the Netherlands spilled over into violence, destruction and dozens of arrests. Across Europe, frustration and fatigue are rising along with infection numbers, leaving the authorities to face the challenge of dealing with unrest in the community - on top of the pandemic.

             As infection-rates rise sharply across Europe, several countries have reimposed measures to tackle the pandemic. But the restrictions have also triggered a wave of new protests. In Brussels thousands of people have rallied against the regulations and a possible vaccine mandate. There have also been demonstrations in other European countries - including Austria, the Netherlands and Croatia. Despite these demonstrations, governments are looking at curbing the fourth wave with lockdowns and restrictions. Coronavirus cases are seemingly out of control in some countries here in Europe. But huge differences exist in infection rates across the continent. Spain and Italy, two countries hit hard at the beginning of the pandemic in 2020, are coping with this latest coronavirus wave relatively well. It's a very different picture here in Germany or neighboring Austria, where a national lockdown begins on Monday. The WHO has warned Europe to act fast to avoid hundreds of thousands of coronavirus deaths.

Several countries did not publish data on Dec.

More about reporting anomalies or changesĮcuador added a backlog of deaths from 2020. The Times has identified reporting anomalies or methodology changes in the data. The New York Times has found that official tallies in more than thirty countries have undercounted deaths during the coronavirus outbreak because of limited testing availability. Data for some countries, like the United States, Denmark, France and the Netherlands, include counts for overseas territories. Population data from the World Bank and U.S. United States data comes from state and local health officials and is collected by The New York Times.

More than 7.5 billion Covid vaccine doses have been administered worldwide, including 2.4 billion in China and 1.1 billion in India.

The city of Melbourne will allow full-capacity stadiums for the Australian Open tennis tournament and the annual Boxing Day cricket match, two of Australia’s biggest sporting events, now that 90 percent of people 16 and older statewide have been fully vaccinated.

In Germany, where cases have reached new records, the authorities canceled Christmas markets for a second consecutive year.

Austria became the first country to order a lockdown only for unvaccinated people, part of a wave of new restrictions sweeping Europe as infections resurge.

China’s top leader said the country had “ overcome the impact of Covid-19,” but authorities continued to impose stringent controls over even small outbreaks as the Communist Party fought to maintain its zero-Covid strategy months before Beijing is set to host the Winter Olympics.

The World Health Organization described the disparity in Covid vaccine access “a scandal that must stop now,” noting that six times more booster shots are being administered globally than primary doses in low-income countries.

The government, which denies that security forces used live ammunition, has now banned all demonstrations.”

Constitutional Rights: Mainers to decide if food is a constitutional right (AP)

“For supporters, the language is short and to the point, ensuring the right to grow vegetables and raise livestock in an era when corporatization threatens local ownership of the food supply, a constitutional experiment that has never been tried in any state. For opponents and skeptics, it’s deceptively vague, representing a threat to food safety and animal welfare, and could embolden residents to raise cows in their backyards in cities like Portland and Bangor.”

Voting Rights: GOP uses voters to push election reforms in unlikely states (AP)

“Republicans in at least four states where Democrats control the governor’s office, the legislature or both — California, Massachusetts, Michigan and Pennsylvania — are pursuing statewide ballot initiatives or veto-proof proposals to enact voter ID restrictions and other changes to election law.”

Capitol Riot: Amid Jan 6 Capitol Riot, Facebook faced its own insurrection (AP)

“Thousands of miles away, in California, Facebook engineers were racing to tweak internal controls to slow the spread of misinformation and inciteful content. Emergency actions — some of which were rolled back after the 2020 election — included banning Trump, freezing comments in groups with a record for hate speech, filtering out the “Stop the Steal” rallying cry and empowering content moderators to act more assertively by labeling the U.S. a “Temporary High Risk Location” for political violence. At the same time, frustration inside Facebook erupted over what some saw as the company’s halting and often reversed response to rising extremism in the U.S.”
