A photo of Merkel's notes allows conclusions to be drawn.
Germany is about to get
vaccine
approval against the coronavirus.
A photo of the notes of Chancellor
Angela Merkel
* (CDU *) allows conclusions to be drawn about vaccination readiness and categorization.
There should be not just three, but 14 categories.
Munich - Who will be Germany's “Patient Zero”?
While the first people have already been vaccinated in England, Germany is still waiting for the
corona vaccine
to be approved
.
But who gets it first?
And how many want to be vaccinated at all?
A
photo of a
piece
of paper
that Angela Merkel carried around with her at a cabinet meeting allows precise conclusions to be drawn about what the vaccination plan looks like.
68 percent of Germans want to be vaccinated
The Kanzerlin and its advisors assume that out of
83 million Germans a total of 46.16 million will be vaccinated
, which corresponds to a participation of 68 percent.
So far, surveys have shown that a smaller proportion of the population is ready to be vaccinated.
The Merkel list contains a total of
14 categories
with the exact number of people and estimated willingness to vaccinate.
In the ministry of health's draft bill, there were only three categories.

However, the list does not show the exact sequence of vaccinations.
Prioritization is
done
by the
Standing Vaccination Commission
(Stiko).
The list is presumably used by the Chancellery to estimate the need for vaccination doses.
According to "Bild" the vaccination is expected to start on December 27th.
There has also been criticism of the vaccination plan: For example, state chairman of the police union,
Jürgen Köhnlein
, demanded
higher prioritization for police officers, just as Bundestag President
Wolfgang Schäuble
claimed this for members of the Bundestag.
So far, both belong to category five.
