and FDP district chairman

after the fire letter from District Administrator Helmut Petz to Bavaria's Minister of Health Klaus Holetschek

In a statement: “Just six weeks ago, the district administrator vehemently denied that the district was lagging behind with vaccinations and sharply criticized our open letter. Now he takes up his pen himself and writes to the Minister of Health. Last month, the district administrator strictly rejected this and attributed the differences to age distribution, proximity to the border and higher incidences in other districts. "

Neighboring districts such as Landshut, Munich and Dachau, which were clearly ahead, “obviously neither border areas nor did they have particularly high incidences”.

The politicians: "Even if the tone in politics is sometimes rough and tough, in the end it is the thing that counts: the best result for the district." Backlog can be made up.

The FDP would also like to thank everyone in the vaccination center and in the medical practices for their "tireless efforts".

"It is important that Freising also benefits from this"

Health Minister Klaus Holetschek

, however, is pleased in a message that the Freising district is also one of the 28 Bavarian regions that "can be supported with a special contingent". Holetschek: "With around 2,400 vaccination doses for the district, we are ensuring more even vaccination progress in Bavaria, and it is important that Freising also benefits from this." Complaints and threats against employees in the district office and in the vaccination center are "a worrying development". “We all have to pull together. We can only end the pandemic together. ”In calendar week 25, 800 doses of Astrazeneca are delivered to the district for first and second vaccinations, the following week the first 800 doses of Moderna, and six weeks later 800 doses for second vaccinations.

Despite the relaxed corona situation at the Freising Clinic, there is no breather.

In addition, doctors and nursing staff remain vigilant - especially with a view to autumn.
