On Monday, new rules took effect barring unvaccinated people who haven\u2019t recovered from an infection from restaurants, hotels, hairdressing salons and large public events.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>Chancellor Alexander Schallenberg said late last month that unvaccinated people in Austria could face new lockdown restrictions if infection numbers continue to rise \u2013 which they have. Figures released Wednesday showed 710.8 reported new cases per 100,000 residents over the previous seven days \u2013 a rate far higher than that of neighboring Germany, where record numbers also are causing alarm.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>During a visit Thursday to Bregenz in western Austria, Schallenberg said that a lockdown for the unvaccinated is \u201cprobably unavoidable\u201d and that the unvaccinated face an \u201cuncomfortable\u201d winter and Christmas, the Austria Press Agency reported.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u00b4t see why two-thirds should lose their freedom because one-third is dithering,\u201d Schallenberg said. \u201cFor me, it is clear that there should be no lockdown for the vaccinated out of solidarity for the unvaccinated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Schallenberg said authorities would consider a vaccine mandate for some professional groups.
