The Mayor of Hamburg, Peter Tschentscher, gives hope: He believes that the corona pandemic will be over before 2022.
Is this realistic?
Hamburg - A ray of hope from Hamburg's Mayor Peter Tschentscher *: The SPD politician sees the end of the corona pandemic this year.
If as many people as possible are vaccinated against Corona, society as a whole can be protected.
“I think we will leave the pandemic behind us this year,” concludes Tschentscher confidently.
According to initial findings, the approved vaccines also protect against the new virus variants.
That would be necessary, because the delta variant in particular is spreading rapidly in northern Germany at the moment *. According to the social welfare authority, the incidence values are also rising again in Hamburg. While the 7-day incidence was 9.3 yesterday, the number of new infections per 100,000 inhabitants jumped to 10.1 on Saturday, July 10th - the Hanseatic city is back in the double-digit range for the first time since the end of June. You can find out here why Tschentscher is still optimistic and sees an end to the pandemic this year *. * 24hamburg.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA.
