Video from Austria shows police checking people’s vaccination status in shops and on motorways, following the government’s decision to place unvaccinated people on their own lockdown.
Authorities have now implemented a lockdown that solely affects the unvaccinated, meaning they can only leave their houses for “essential reasons” such as grocery shopping, as revealed over the weekend.
These measures, which are the first of their kind in the world, impact the roughly 35 per cent of Austrians who haven’t had both doses of the vaccine.
