As European nations such as the United Kingdom and Ireland are backtracking on some of their Covid-related mandates and edicts, the Czech Republic recently decided to rescind on some of their vaccine mandates.
The government has decided not to enforce mandatory vaccination. We still consider vaccination to be the best weapon in the fight against Covid-19 and we strongly recommend that people get vaccinated in order to protect themselves and others. However we do not want to deepen the divisions in society by enforcing this. Moreover the percentage of vaccinations among high risk groups, whom it would concern, is already very high. So the conclusion was: no mandatory vaccinations.
Prime Minister Petr Fiala said
Radio Prague International wrote, ‘The decision, which was originally to have been announced in mid-February, was clearly intended to ease tensions over an issue that has caused rifts in families and companies. The prime minister was at pains to stress that the decision did not mean that the government no longer believed in vaccinations as an effective means of fighting the pandemic, urging Czechs to get their primary vaccination as well as a booster shot and saying the government planned to make booster shots available for children over the age of 12 soon.’
As more fears of the Omicron variant flourish, the government is still enforcing other restrictions and edicts. Companies must test their staff two times a week and once a week in schools.
‘Although the government has shortened the quarantine period to five days to prevent the state from collapsing, the lack of employees in different sectors is already making itself felt,’ said the Czech radio. Public transportation is running out of employees, forcing to increase the length of the travel intervals, and some cancellations.
Moreover, classrooms have been decreasing in size due to more children exiting the schools due to some of the mandates. The government has granted school principals to tack on an extra 10 days of holiday time if need be.
It is suspected that around mid-February, where Omicron cases are expected to ease a bit, the government will announce the roadmap ahead and the easing of Covid-related restrictions.
As it currently stands, the Czech Republic is a little less than 64.5% of the population receiving at least one dose of a Covid vaccine.

Don’t you just love how these liars in the government had a mandate in place, which caused the cowards to come out the closet and get the jab, only for them to pull back and say, ‘Ah, nevermind: no more mandates [for now].’
As we are seeing in some nations, the illusion of the easing of restrictions will continue. But do not let your guard down. The governments have not been honest for a single day throughout this whole thing (nor were they prior); so, what would make you think this is not yet ANOTHER bait and switch?

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

Jesus on these political power people of the world: John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
