Still easing for those who are vaccinated?

Minister of Health Frank Vandenbroucke (Vooruit) has requested new advice from the corona experts. He wants to know whether there can be easing for people who have already been vaccinated.

The reason is a new report from the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control, which suggests that people who have been vaccinated should meet up indoors without wearing a mouth mask.

Vandenbroucke has asked the Corona Commissioner to take that advice under the microscope. In the coming days, the Gems experts will have to discuss the relationship between the vaccination campaign, the testing strategy and ethical aspects. ‘Thanks to the vaccination, relaxation will certainly be possible, in combination with the testing policy’, microbiologist Herman Goossens said yesterday. VTM News. “But at the moment there is still too much virus circulating.”

In any case, it will be a difficult balancing act to allow a certain group to relax. However, it would not be unique: the residential care centers were also allowed to loosen the reins after the vaccinations.

Flemish Minister of Youth Benjamin Dalle (CD&V) is already opposed to the possible introduction of ‘vaccine privileges’. ‘One cannot have more rights than the other. Certainly with regard to the young people, who come at the end of the vaccination schedule, that would be unjust, ‘he said in the Radio 1 program The morning.
