Austria closed all schools on 15 March 2020, two days before the third COVID-19 death was confirmed. Non-essential movement has been banned one day later. As of 17 August, there have been 23,373 cases (0.26% of the population) and 728 COVID-19 deaths (3.11% of cases). On 2 September Austria’s government has presented a new set of coronavirus recommendations including private gatherings to be limited to 25 people. According to a Statista poll in July 2020, 70% of Austrians were either very satisfied (27%) or rather satisfied (43%) with the COVID-19 measures while 20% were rather not satisfied and 10% were not at all satisfied. However, 51% did not approve how the government managed the economic consequences of the crisis. The opposition in Austria pressured Chancellor Kurz to undo the measures as quickly as to not drastically interfere with the peoples’ basic rights any longer. 56% of Austrians, however, say that the easing of measures including the freedom of travel came too fast. Austria was a member of the “frugal four” at the EU Council summit, asking for reductions of spending. Therefore, the Austrian Chancellor was very satisfied with the outcome, as Austria additionally received an increased rebate. The next Austrian presidential election will take place in 2024.

  • What Is EU Public Health and Why? Explaining the Scope and Organization of Public Health in the European Union
    What Is EU Public Health and Why? Explaining the Scope and Organization of Public Health in the European Union Scott L. Greer Holly Jarman University of Michigan Abstract Public health is notoriously difficult to define, and that is the case for public health in the European Union as much as other political systems. In this article, the authors try to identify the actual scope and meaning of public health as it is institu- tionalized in the EU political system. Using a mixture of historical policy and legal analysis, the authors show how the evolution of the institutional space called public health in the EU has been shaped by the EU’s distinctive constitutional nature, its focus on regulation, and the legacy of its focus on market making as well as the preferences of its political leaders. The European Union does have an increasingly large space named “public health,” in which health ministers, the health directorate-general, and invoca- tion of its public health treaty article 168 can be found, as well as a much broader and older area of activities justified by the need to manage adverse health consequences of market-making policies in other areas such as labor standards and agriculture. The COVID-19 crisis of 2020 not only led to a strengthening of EU public health but also showed that the EU is one of the many political systems in which the legal and bureaucratic domain of public health is far smaller than the actual issues affecting the public’s health. Keywords European Union, public health, politics, communicable disease control It is a staple of reflective writing on public health to note that it is a hard field to define, and one preoccupied with self-definition.

  • Stella Kyriakides: EU Commissioner for Health
    Stella Kyriakides: EU Commissioner for Health Alberto Costa / 2 November 2020 When Stella Kyriakides took on the post of EU Health Commissioner in September 2019, Europe’s cancer community knew they could trust her to fight their cause. Within months she was launching a public consultation on Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan. Then came COVID. Alberto Costa asked her how her experience as a breast cancer survivor and patient advocate shaped her approach to her new role and how she is coping with the demands of responding to a major public health crisis while still delivering on the expectations of the cancer community. Cancer World: You were still becoming familiar with your new office at the Berlaymont in Brussels when the COVID-19 pandemic exploded. How did you respond? Stella Kyriakides: In Greek, there is a saying: “In difficult situations, you just roll up your sleeves and get the work done.” There was no option but to do everything to rise to the challenge of the greatest public health crisis in memory. Quickly getting a grasp of the issues at hand, ensuring we have the right expertise in place, connecting the dots to our Member States and European Parliament, and finding pragmatic, concrete and workable solutions as quickly as possible in a calm and effective way. The COVID-19 crisis has affected the lives of countless citizens and businesses around the globe. As European Commissioner for Health and Food Safety, it is my responsibility to ensure that we do everything we can to protect public health. It is important to be prepared for any eventuality at all times, and be ready to react swiftly.

  • Valérie Hayer Member of the European Parliament Brussels, 11
    Valérie Hayer Brussels, 11 March 2020 Member of the European Parliament Ms. Ursula von der Leyen President European Commission Rue de la Loi / Wetstraat 200 1049 Brussels Belgium Dear President, On behalf of the Renew Europe Group’s French delegation, I ask you and the coronavirus response team to take all the appropriate budgetary measures to ensure a coordinated European response to the health, economic and social impacts caused by the coronavirus outbreak in all Member States of the European Union (EU). In this regard, I welcome the Corona Response Investment Initiative aiming at mobilising 7.5 billion of euros unspent for the cohesion policy. In addition, I want to raise your attention that more than 4 billion of euros are also available for unforeseen events and crises in this year budget. As this situation puts high pressure on our European businesses, economy and workers, we should use the EU budget flexibilities to alleviate economic losses and reinforce sectors and enterprises at risk, enabling the European Union and its businesses to cope with unforeseen sanitary crises in the future at the same time. Consequently, I urge you to make a proposal for the modification of the Council Regulation (EU) 2016/369 of 15 March 2016 on the provision of emergency support within the Union in order to extend its scope for providing European businesses and sectors negatively and significantly impacted by an epidemic with a budgetary support to avoid their collapse and job losses, but also to prepare them for any future crisis. If such a modification cannot be considered, I ask you to propose a new Regulation based on the Article 122 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, which states that the Union may grant financial assistance “where a Member State is in difficulties or is seriously threatened with severe difficulties caused by natural disasters or exceptional occurrences beyond its control”.

  • Is Populism a Problem
    Is populism a problem STRASBOURG 8 10 NOVEMBER PROGRAMME #CoE_WFD The world Forum for democracy is placed under the high patronnage of Emmanuel Macron, President of the French Republic 2 Populism may take many forms and vary in defnition, but it is almost always a symptom of democratic malaise. Democracy requires public trust and an institutional balance, enabling fair political competition, the alternation of power, and constructive political negotiation. This trust is being rapidly eroded. Many citizens now believe that the actors of liberal democracy – in particular traditional political parties, and the media, do not serve their interests. They feel that liberal democracy has failed them and they are looking for new opportunities for political participation. This sentiment of powerlessness and desperation provides fertile ground for populism. Some populists claim to make marginalised voices matter by formulating more equitable, fair, and sustainable policies. Others hijack the political debate with an aggressive, divisive rhetoric and attacks on liberal values. They claim to embrace democracy – but not of the liberal kind. They curb political pluralism and freedom of expression, and undermine the judiciary, media and multilateral institutions that can hold them accountable. The liberal democratic consensus was born from the immense sufering of the Second World War. Mass political parties and the mass media were the guardians of liberal democracy in the industrial era. We need to profoundly rethink democracy in the age of the internet, big data, and social media and bring citizens to the heart of policy-making. The World Forum for Democracy 2017 will enable political leaders, activists and change-makers from around the world to share solutions that can help stop authoritarian populism, now a pathology of democracy, from becoming the norm.
