Is Germany headed for another lockdown?

 

I don’t know why we are not at least planning for similar conditions as virus season approaching here… but you have the Biden people going all around with the covid happy-talk meanwhile the GOP is fighting the mandatory vaccination so BOTH sides in the dialogue not in a position to welcome accurate reporting on any potential or nascent covid surge here… SCARY!

Michael Kretschmer, the leader of the eastern state of Saxony, told German radio that unless immediate action was taken to counter growing case rates, the situation would “end in a lockdown like last year”. The head of the neighbouring state of Thuringia, Bodo Ramelow, said hospitals were rapidly running out of beds because of the rise in coronavirus patients.

Then to beat all as here we are in a still VERY DANGEROUS virus pandemic (data suggests perhaps a nascent surge btw) and you have the bond short inflationista monetarist assholes going all around saying "Fed has to take away the punchbowl!" like things are going really too well for us...  I hate these fucking people…
