A Jab and a Blow-Job, Courtesy of 'Fun Palace' in Vienna--oh, the 'good ol' times' of Coronamania
Prelim: I originally posted this one as ‘footnote 2’ on 23 Nov. 2021. ‘Enjoy’.
You can’t make this up, as per ‘serious’ news outlets, such as SkyNews:
‘Vienna brothel offers customers 30 minutes with “lady of their choice” in exchange for coronavirus jab.’
Also, The Daily Sun (New Zealand)—really: you’re, like, halfway around the world and actually care about this?—won’t leave out this wonderful story, either:
There’s more, e.g., here’s Reuters on this, and here’s NBC News from 12 Nov. 2021:
‘FunPalast, a brothel in the capital Vienna, has opted to inject some enthusiasm—and Covid immunity—into its clientele by offering free access to anyone willing to get the jab on-site.
The brothel made international headlines this week after announcing it would be giving vouchers of 40 € (about $46)—the cost of entry—to anyone willing to get vaccinated at its pop-up clinic.
Speaking with NBC News in a phone interview on Thursday, Christoph Lielacher, FunPalast’s chief executive, said the initiative started out as a clever “marketing idea”, but has since become an “absolutely serious” operation.
Nearly 150 visitors at the brothel were vaccinated on Monday alone, according to Lielacher. NBC News has not verified the numbers.
“We have a perfect vaccination line. We have two doctors, we have nurses…We have a room where you are vaccinated and afterwards, we have a room where you can sit down or lie down, so it’s not a joke. It's a perfect line for vaccination”, he said.
Those who want to get vaccinated at the brothel but aren’t interested in accessing its other services, he said, can instead use their vouchers for access to the site’s gym.
It seems as if someone dropped the hint, and everyone picked it up as well. Strange, but where have I seen this before?
Now, you’re probably itching to check this out: here goes:
This wonderful picture can be found here (as well as 10 more, in case you’re ‘interested’).
To conclude this footnote, here’s more from the manager, Mr. Laskaris, quoted in the above piece from SkyNews:
‘Basically, I was looking at the statistics and I read that we need like 70-75% for us to reach herd immunity, but we’re currently only at 63%.
And then I noticed in the statistics that very many men, very many men with a migration background, virtually refuse vaccination or don’t even know that you can be vaccinated.
"And since we are actually reaching this target group, we decided to set up a vaccination [clinic] here.’
So, let me ask this, then: where are all those ‘woke’, self-identifying ‘super-progressive-über-alles’ left-liberals who would balk at these blatant -isms: there’s so much here, e.g., the objectification of sex workers, misogynism, a side-dish of racism and anti-immigrant stereotypes, but no-one is standing up to these ‘issues’ here?
Really?
(Also: /sarcasm)
Brothel owners/managers and brothel "independent contractors" don't do anything out of the goodness of their hearts, or their social conscience - Money, Money, Money....
How much did the brothel earn per vaccination? How much did the doctors earn? The nurses? How many of the vaccinees shelled out for extra services? How many of the vaccination visitors subsequently became brothel customers? Something tells me it was a whole lot more than €40
Have you seen our (Bavaria) latest scandal: The Masks Affair! "Politician's daughter Andrea Tandler sentenced to more than four years in prison" https://aussiedlerbote.de/en/mask-affair-politicians-daughter-andrea-tandler-sentenced-to-more-than-four-years-in-prison/
But sure, it was all about public health, and there's always a few rotten apples who will game the system ;)
Geimpfte, Impfen.
German is too difficult. That's why they get crazy. Or maybe it's the other way around. The language reflects too much higher brain development. When they are being comical, the Viennese are beyond silly. The northern European German speakers - the German Germans - when they let loose, are hysterically funny. Impfen and Geimpfte - with how many grammatical variations? The thinking mind goes too far out on a limb. The brothel idea sounds very Viennese. A little too kinky. Don't expect comments from the pseudoLeft. They wouldn't know what to say to this.
