Alice Weidel: AfD chairman in quarantine after a positive corona test

After the appearance of “flu-like symptoms”, AfD politician Alice Weidel did a corona test that turned out positive.

Berlin – Because she was infected with the corona virus *, the chairman of the AfD * parliamentary group, Alice Weidel, has to be in quarantine. The AfD politician had made a corona test due to “flu-like symptoms”, the result of which was positive, as a spokesman Weidels confirmed on Thursday. “She immediately went into quarantine at home,” he added.

After the AfD party leader and co-group chairman Tino Chrupalla *, Weidel is the second prominent politician in the AfD parliamentary group to be infected with the corona virus within a few weeks. According to its spokesman, Weidel’s last meeting with the parliamentary group took place on October 27th.

Alice Weidel tested positive for Corona – 3G rule decided in the Bundestag despite AfD votes against

In the federal election campaign, Weidel had repeatedly complained about restrictions on fundamental rights to contain the corona pandemic, always emphasizing that she had not yet been vaccinated against Covid-19.

It was only on Thursday that the right-wing populist AfD parliamentary group in the Bundestag again protested loudly against a 3G regulation in parliament and voted against it when a motion was submitted for its implementation. The motion was accepted by a majority of the other parliamentary groups, which in future means for unvaccinated AfD members who also do not want to be tested that they will have to take a seat in the public gallery during Bundestag debates. This was already the case with several AfD MPs on Thursday, as reported by the German press agency. (ska / dpa) * fr.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA
