Munich - The conditions in the vaccination center in Riem are "catastrophic", complain
tz
readers.
For example, many Munich residents * would have to wait for hours in the cold while waiting for the corona vaccination!
According to the city, the cause often lies in the behavior of the unreasonable.
The administration now wants to at least enlarge the waiting areas.
Since the start of the Corona * vaccinations, 27,800 vaccinations were carried out up to and including Monday.
6600 first and 1000 second vaccinations in the vaccination center as well as 11,600 first and 8600 second vaccinations in the homes.

Corona vaccinations in Munich: Please arrive as late as possible at your own appointment
As it was said on Tuesday from the town hall, there are still queues in Riem.
However, these are at least largely due to people who come to the vaccination center up to two hours before their appointment.
In addition, people without an appointment would queue up and delay the process.
Because only people who have already made an appointment via the vaccination portal are vaccinated.
People without an appointment must be turned away.
In order to avoid unnecessary waiting times and accumulations, the vaccination center asks all people who have arranged a vaccination appointment to arrive no more than ten minutes before the agreed appointment.
“You don't have to worry that your appointment will expire, even if you come a few minutes late,” says health officer Beatrix Zurek (SPD).
In addition, the waiting area in exhibition hall C3 will be enlarged.
Until the renovation is complete, heated tents with seating will be set up in front of the entrance.
How did they get on on Tuesday?
We asked around.
