How the Austrian government communicates about Covid and what that has to do with neoiliberalism
On December 20, 2020, about a week after the second lockdown had ended, Austrian Chancellor Sebasitan Kurz stated in an interview that the third wave of Covid will be even more severe than the second one. But still, we are in the middle of the second wave. Should more than 2,000 daily infections and between 100 and 150 deaths per day really be the lowest point of the curve, a third wave would be absolutely horrifying.
Kurz thoug talks about a third wave as if he had no influence whatsoever on how strong that wave will be. The wave will ineveitably come and there is nothing that can be done about it.
