Which will be interesting, because traditionally Austrians don't 'do' vaccinations - not in their culture due to healthy lifestyle and remote communities. |  |

AlJazeera have a bit more on that: '30 Nov 2021 - 11:01 GMT Greece to make vaccinations for persons over 60 mandatory: PM Greece has said that it will fine people over the age of 60 who have not received a first COVID-19 shot, as the country grappled with a new surge in coronavirus cases. Authorities said they would impose a 100-euro ($113) fine on every individual over the age of 60 who was not vaccinated. The measure would apply each month from January 16 onwards.'
