Munich -
Germany
has been
vaccinated
against
Covid-19

hard lockdown

Too late?
At least that's what the boss of a
vaccination center in Saxony-Anhalt
claims
.
“It was always said: at Corona, every day counts.
We had the vaccine on Saturday and were ready - then why should we wait until Sunday?
Nobody understands that.
I'm glad we got started right away, "said Immo Kramer, vaccination boss in the Hartz district, of the
picture
.
Coronavirus vaccinations in Germany: In Hartz (Saxony-Anhalt) they were vaccinated a day earlier
He and his helpers just started earlier, on December 26th, Boxing Day.
Federal
Minister of
Health Jens Spahn (CDU)
and
Saxony-Anhalt's Prime Minister Reiner Haseloff (CDU) *
knew about it - nothing at all!
And they looked pretty much taken by surprise.
"We all EU partner countries and with the 16 states agreed to deliver and on Saturday all starting Sunday to start together with the vaccination," a spokesman said
Spahn
of the
Bild newspaper
.
Saxony-Anhalt's head of state Haseloff announced
: “I heard about it from the Federal Minister by SMS and was just as surprised as he was.
But I can only explain it this way, that the pressure has built up there to get started as quickly as possible. "
Coronavirus vaccinations in Germany: Sharp criticism of the vaccination start policy by Jens Spahn (CDU)
Meanwhile
, Kramer, a man in the first line of
Corona
*
vaccination, continues to
build pressure
on federal politics.
“You know, we work here for our Hartzer population, for people who live here and not for individual politicians who want to give the go-ahead or cut a ribbon.
That is our obligation and we want to meet it, "he told the
picture
:" I see no medical or logistical reason to hold such a cinnabar here (
unnecessary effort, d. Ed
.).
When we are ready, we want to get started.
The population here in
Hartz
would like to be vaccinated. "
Among other things, on recruitment from
Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission
, the EU member states had agreed to start vaccination on the same day.
And that obviously does not meet with understanding everywhere.
