At the start of the corona vaccinations at the company doctors, association bosses complain about the small amount of vaccination doses.
Certain employees should therefore be prioritized.
At the start of the company doctors in the corona vaccinations on Monday (June 7th), the responsible association warns against too high expectations.
The President of the Association of German Company and Company Doctors, Wolfgang Panter, referred to the low vaccine quantities as a justification.
“For the coming week, every company doctor could order 800 cans and in
the end
he
will receive 102
.
For the following week, each company doctor can only order 300 cans.
That's a clear signal, ”said Panter to the editorial network Germany (RND / Saturday).
Only recently had the association expressed its satisfaction with the number of vaccine doses announced.

The President of the Federation of German Industries (BDI), Siegfried Russwurm, also complains in
Bild am Sonntag
about
the lack of vaccine at the beginning of the company vaccinations: “Some [companies] are
even hesitant to start
because they don't prefer a few dozen out of thousands of employees want.
The vaccination could run like baking pretzels if the company doctors were given more vaccine.
I would have hoped for more oomph from politics, ”said the BDI President.
According to the Federal Ministry of Health, more than 6,000 company doctors have ordered vaccines.
In the first week they should receive a total of 702,000 doses.
You start with the preparation from Biontech / Pfizer.

Company doctors should give preference to employees at higher risk
Panter advised the company doctors to first vaccinate those employees who have a
higher risk of infection
, for example because they work closely together in the factory or because they have a lot of customer contact.
Office workers or those working from home could be vaccinated as a secondary vaccination.
The head of the association also recommended that companies take
into account
possible
side effects
: "It is better
not to vaccinate all employees at the same time,
especially in work areas that have an impact on the entire company, for example the control room in a power plant
." Company doctors certainly prefer the Johnson & Johnson vaccine because it only needs to be injected once.
