On Tuesday, another political discussion arose in connection with the Corona Fund in Lower Austria. The responsible FPÖ state councilor, Christoph Luisser, criticized Minister Johannes Rauch (Greens), who in turn responded and left a joint press conference early during the question and answer session.
There are more exciting things than a conference of state health officials. But the “great unanimity” that Health Minister Rauch spoke about afterwards in Luberegg Castle (Lower Austria) quickly disappeared. After a verbal conversation about alleged vaccine damage with the Lower Austrian State Councilor Luisser, the minister angrily left the press conference with the words “my patience has run out.”
Dispute also about financing applications from anti-corona activists
The 24 clubs of Carinthian anti-corona activist Martin Rutter, which had applied for funding in Lower Austria, were also a controversial topic. The decision lies with Luisser.
According to previous information from Luisser’s office, several applications from Rutter’s clubs have been approved. No money has flowed yet. The final disbursement of funding will only take place after a final check to ensure all requirements have been met and there is no multiple funding, the report said.
FPÖ notes “lack of sense of guilt”
The verbal exchange of blows kept the waves rising in the aftermath. FPÖ Secretary General Michael Schnedlitz stated in a broadcast that Rauch had left the press conference prematurely because he did not want to be confronted with “the completely justified criticism of him and the lack of guilt from the entire black-green federal government.”
Health Minister Rauch reiterated via X (formerly Twitter) the criticism that had already been posted on the press event. “If the responsible state council supports such events, he is complicit. Vaccinations save lives,” was the conclusion of the Green politician.
