Jörg Urban, July 13, 2021, Corona Decree

AfD Kompakt, July 13, 2021 

In Saxony, the mask obligation applies in designated areas even when Corona cases are no longer at all registered. That is disproportionate and incompatible with the Saxon Constitution. Just so, we doubt the legality of the numerous testing obligations. Especially in the schools is the continued existence of the testing obligation questionable, since under certain circumstances it annuls the right of our children to an education.

For a year and a half, the Saxon State government under the auspices of the Social Ministry conducts a policy which massively curtails the freedom of the person, the general business freedom and the freedom of occupation. That this unacceptable, long-term situation will be maintained, even with an infection incidence of nearly nil, shows the government’s lack of will to completely restore the basic rights.

For this reason, we again appear before the Constitutional Court. We have already preferred corresponding complaints against two older Corona emergency decrees. Unfortunately, the need for urgency of these complaints was not acknowledged. The Constitutional Court nevertheless signaled that it regarded very critically several of the regulations.

The issuer of the decree must establish the efficacy of each of the several preventive measures with objective, scientific facts. This so far has not ensued from the start. Thus – if at all – a minimal effect answers for a maximum restriction of freedom. Precisely this is unconstitutional.

In addition, the government simply shoves aside all scientific doubt in its preventive measures. Statisticians of the Ludwig-Maximilian University, Munich, discovered that there is no direct connection between Corona preventive measures and a decline of infections. Why are such understandings not considered?

On the basis of this striking deficiency, we see great prospects of success before the court and demand the unconstitutional Corona decree finally be annulled. It is time to change over to the principle of individual responsibility.
