Those who have recovered or are vaccinated have been shown to be less contagious.

Not all restrictions should therefore apply to them, says Bundestag President Schäuble.

Berlin - President of the Bundestag Wolfgang Schäuble considers it appropriate that those who have been vaccinated and recovered from the corona pandemic enjoy more freedom than those who have not been vaccinated.

It has been proven that after recovery or after a full vaccination, the risk of infecting others decreases significantly, said Schäuble of the "Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung" (Thursday). "Therefore we will not be able to permanently subject these groups to all the restrictions that must apply to non-vaccinated people in order to fight the pandemic," emphasized the CDU politician. He also sees no constitutional problems for such a different treatment.

Schäuble was concerned about the lower vaccination rate in Germany. "I can not understand the lack of vaccination, it makes me extremely sad," said the Speaker of Parliament. At the beginning of the year, people couldn't have waited to get the injection that saved them. "And now family doctors are desperate because vaccination doses are left with them en masse." Complete vaccination protection for as many people as possible is the only chance to put Corona in its place and to secure freedom.

In order to increase the vaccination rate, Schäuble also hopes for social pressure.

Each individual should deal more closely with the question of what consequences a refusal to vaccinate would have for their fellow human beings.

At the same time, more vaccination offers are needed wherever people are anyway, soon again in front of the football stadium or the open-air concert.

Any creative idea of ​​how more people can be vaccinated is welcome.

“We all have to avoid a new lockdown together!

That would be devastating for society, the economy and all other areas of life, ”Schäuble made clear.

Especially in educational institutions from daycare to university, such restrictions should not be allowed to occur again in order not to cause even more damage to children and young people.
