Bremen - In the age group of all over 60-year-olds, according to the information, almost 92 percent are already fully vaccinated, in those between 18 and 59 years just under 88 percent.

This means that Bremen is already achieving the goals set by the Robert Koch Institute in these groups.

Mobile vaccination teams: Promote vaccination among nurses as well

In the debate about compulsory vaccination for certain occupational groups such as teachers and nurses, the state of Lower Saxony continues to rely on voluntariness.

Claudia Schröder from the state government's Corona crisis team was confident that she could continue to convince people without a vaccination through education and personal contact.

The mobile vaccination teams, which will start booster vaccinations in old people's and nursing homes from October, should therefore again advertise vaccinations among the nursing staff, she said on Tuesday in Hanover.
