Unless I am presented with some hard evidence (that isn't from the German state) then I find it hard to believe. It still doesn't justify curtailing individual liberties anyway.

Maybe. I get your point. I saw the clip of her on Bill Marr's show that has been floating around. She has pushed back when it was safe to do so. The tide was already turning on that.
