As of today, company doctors in Bavaria can also vaccinate against corona.
It's just stupid that many companies have not yet received a delivery - and most of them are pretty poor.
Since Monday, June 7th, company doctors have also been allowed to vaccinate in Bavaria.
In many companies, however, hardly any vaccine arrives.

Munich
- Since today, Monday, June 7th, company doctors in Bavaria have also been allowed to vaccinate against the corona virus *.
The state government had already set June 7th as the official starting day for the vaccination campaign in German companies.
Companies had a strict deadline to order the vaccine, but most are well prepared.
There is a problem elsewhere - with the vaccine delivery.
Bertram Brossardt, the managing director of the Association of Bavarian Business (vbw) said in an interview with the German Press Agency on Monday: “We are counting on more vaccine being delivered week after week in order to use the vaccination willingness of the companies and their workforce and so on to speed up the vaccination campaign.

Corona vaccinations with company doctors in Bavaria: Hardly any vaccine and that too late
Despite the official Corona vaccination start on Monday, the vaccine ordered will not arrive in many companies until Tuesday or later.
The sporting goods manufacturer Adidas, which had set up vaccination lines at its three locations in Herzogenaurach,
Scheinfeld and Rieste
weeks
ago, does not expect the vaccine until the week.
Another problem is the volume of deliveries.
The company Siemens expects around 6,000 vaccination doses with the first load - with around 90,000 employees across Germany, as the
SZ
reports.
The automaker Audi expects around 61,000 employees to initially have 2,500 vaccine doses.
Corona vaccinations in Bavaria: In vaccination centers, risk groups are still prioritized
Prime Minister Markus Söder * and Health Minister Klaus Holetschek (both CSU) had planned a visit to BMW at the beginning of the company doctor vaccinations. Allianz, Audi and the automotive supplier Schaeffler, among others, want to start vaccinations this week. Smaller companies will soon follow suit. How long it will take before the company doctors have enough vaccine available, there is currently no statement from the government. The order in which the doctors vaccinate is also unclear. In the vaccination centers in Bavaria, vaccination is still prioritized. As the Ministry of Health announced, they still prefer members of the three risk groups via the online registration system. In the meantime, company doctors are allowed to vaccinate without prioritization - the organization is left to the companies.
