Good evening, the time has come


in the Main-Kinzig district: The intensive care units of four hospitals are busy because of the many corona patients.

Better not to have a heart attack in this county right now.

It could be that the patient has to be driven long distances to a hospital, it is said.

And the Main-Kinzig district with a seven-day incidence of 218 is not even one of the front runners.

Offenbach (263) and especially Frankfurt (271) come up with completely different values.

Because of the pandemic,

which is largely a pandemic of the unvaccinated and thus the uninspired

, social life is now being shut down bit by bit.

In Idstein, for example, the Christmas market has now been canceled, with such a high incidence such an event simply no longer fits, according to the town hall.

But how do you deal with the virus that is rolling in again?

From the Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund it is said that the application of the 3-G rule in trains and buses is not very conceivable, a control is simply not possible.

In her comment, colleague Jacqueline Vogt advises that at least wearing an FFP-2 mask could be required in local public transport.

In addition, the members of the Frankfurt Union also disagree as to who should become party chairman of the CDU;

the composer Farzia Fallah is for three months as "Composer in Residence" in Frankfurt;

The waiting times at Frankfurt Airport could be particularly long in the next few days, so arrive early for the trip.

I wish you a pleasant evening

Yours Manfred Köhler
