Covid in Austria: Sars-Cov-2 as Bioweapon discussed in Court

Nah, it's not what you think, it's even worse: a woman stands accused of 'infecting' her neighbour who later died and faces up to three years in prison, if convicted

Oh my, look at what I just saw browsing casually through legacy media on a slow Saturday morning, online via Covidian tabloid Heute, dated 28 Jan. 2023 (emphases mine).

Covid as ‘Weapon’: Man Died, Neighbour to Face Charges

An infected 53-year-old woman allegedly ignored the quarantine. A neighbour fell ill with Corona and died. Now the Carinthian woman has to go to court.

A case unique in Austria will be heard on 23 February at the State Court [Landesgericht] in Klagenfurt. A Carinthian woman (53) is said to have used Corona as a ‘weapon’ because she had disregarded the quarantine and thus infected a neighbour (69). Now she finds herself accused of involuntary manslaughter [fahrlässige Tötung] and intentional endangerment of the community by a communicable disease, reports the Kleine Zeitung.

The 53-year-old became infected with Corona in December 2021. After a positive test, the woman received a quarantine order [Absorderungsbescheid]. Nevertheless, the Carinthian woman repeatedly left her flat, stayed in the stairwell of the apartment building, or outside.

Neighbour Likely to Have Contracted the Disease in the Stairwell.

Neighbours complained to the health authorities and the police were called in. A little later, a senior citizen (69) who lived in the same house as the woman also fell ill with Covid-19. Presumably, the man had contracted the disease in the shared stairwell.

The 69-year-old’s health deteriorated and he had to be admitted to hospital. He died there in January 2022 as a result of his Coronavirus disease [was he treated?]. The authorities informed the public prosecutor’s office, which initiated an investigation.

Coronavirus Strain Came From the Infected Neighbour

A virologist commissioned to write an expert opinion came to the conclusion that the coronavirus strain found in the 69-year-old ‘highly likely’ [mit an Sicherheit grenzender Wahrscheinlichkeit] originated from his neighbour, public prosecutor’s office spokeswoman Tina Frimmel-Hesse explained to the Kleine Zeitung. According to the virologist, there is a direct and clearly attributable connection between the woman’s illness and the death of the pensioner. [notice the sleight of hand in terms of ‘highly likely’ to ‘clearly attributable’? In a sane world, no state attorney would go near this kind of questionable evidence, in Austro-Covidistan in 2023, however, …]

On 23 February, the 53-year-old woman—to whom the presumption of innocence applies [sure, just re-read the preceding paragraph…]—must therefore stand trial for involuntary manslaughter, among other charges. If found guilty, the woman faces up to three years imprisonment.

Bottom Lines

You didn’t expect this, eh? What an insane miscarriage of justice.

Here’s why I think this is a frivolous lawsuit and a thorough disgrace for whatever remains of the ‘rule of law’:

• Can the time of infection of the 69 year-old be determined with anything approximating certainty?

• If so, were all other neighbours also tested at the presumed time of infection?

• I doubt it, but this is materially important as there is a distinct possibility that the deceased senior actually contracted Covid-19 elsewhere: did the authorities re-trace all his steps to rule this out?

• A communicable disease as ‘involuntary manslaughter’? What’s next, the demonisation and incarceration of ‘the infected’? We’ve been there in the past, and apparently the German-speaking peoples are reverting to that ‘norm’…

• The wording, even in its translated form, does not, to me, amount to overcome considerations ‘beyond reasonable doubt’.

In short: this is an abomination and a disgrace. Don’t count on the judge to throw out this case and reprimand the public prosecutor.

Shame, shame, shame.
