A selection of comments I received, plus a telling tweet (meme) by one of the most ardent Zero Covid Hawks that illustrates the effect of 'the pandemic™' on the human mind
In Germany they shut us out of public transportation, but still allowed us to go to the supermarket.
I gather it was the other way around in Austria.
Looks almost like an experiment doesn't it?
I suppose it's incompetence coupled with experimentation and desperation to be seen 'doing something', but it was wild.
Public transport was always o.k., albeit with FF2 mask obligation, until April 2022 or the like, if memory serves.
What? Where? Not in Hamburg.
EDIT: Maybe I'm wrong. I'd have to research this. I at least knew a few people who bought bicycles during this time.
Me and a few people I know were at least under the assumption that you could only ride the bus/train if vaccinated.
