In certain situations we will always wear masks, wash hands, keep our distance and we will have to re-vaccinate regularly, according to the prognosis of World Medical Association boss Montgomery.
Berlin - The chairman of the World Medical Association, Frank Ulrich Montgomery, expects that masks will not disappear from everyday life.
When asked whether he saw a point in time when Corona could be viewed as a completely normal disease, Montgomery said on Sunday in the ARD “Europamagazin” that the point had been reached when 85 percent of the population had been immunized through vaccination and going through the disease .
“But we will never get rid of Corona again.
In certain situations we will always have to wear masks, wash our hands, keep our distance and we will have to re-vaccinate regularly, as we know from the flu, ”he added.
British openings "totally irresponsible"
With a view to the significant increase in the number of infections in Great Britain and the planned lifting of the corona restrictions there, Montgomery said he considered it “completely irresponsible to do such relaxation exercises with these incidence values and a halting vaccination campaign (...).” He wonder how many people would be infected in the evening at the European Championship finals at Wembley Stadium. "And I dread it a little." Dpa
