Apparently, the local region went to the 2G mandate (meaning NO tested individuals allowed, just allowing vaccinated and recovered Covid people). This would have kept out those stupid non-vax people.
So a party night was convened at some nightclub last week. Results? So far, 26 attendees are confirmed to have Covid.
What the local authorities are saying? Well....the 26-number is not the final result, and it might go higher. Plus they are hinting that just about everyone from that party needs to have a PCR test (not even the free quickie test).
Common sense view? 2G mandates are going to be basically worthless....you might as well go to the imaginary-non-existent 1G idea where everyone is tested at the door (via the quickie tests)....if this is a indoor event (pub, bar, grill, restaurant, theater, etc).
As cooler temperatures arrive, I expect more Germans to be socializing indoors, with the 2G mandate in effect, and folks shocked that Covid is passed around more easily (even if you are vaccinated).
UPDATE: This afternoon.....number went up to 39. All from one single social party under city-mandated 2G rules. Pretty amazing. No details yet if it's 100-percent vax-people or 50/50 with recovered folks. Probably get some rocket scientist chatter tonight over the episode.

The coalition kinda put itself in a hard position saying 80 percent was herd immunity. I think this goes back 6 months. So even if the infection rate goes up, they won't revert to restrictions.
