In the heated debate about the vaccination status of national soccer player Joshua Kimmich (26), politics will initially not impose any conditions on professional athletes and clubs, according to Prime Minister Winfried Kretschmann.
"First of all, it is up to the company to decide how to deal with it," said the head of government in Baden-Württemberg on Tuesday in Stuttgart.
Stuttgart - “We don't have to be vaccinated,” said the Green politician, referring to the “freedom of contract for companies”.
Initially, the state has no intention of imposing conditions or requirements.
Kretschmann (73) claims to be rethinking Kimmich, who has not yet been vaccinated.
The FC Bayern Munich player admitted on the weekend after the German record champions' 4-0 win against 1899 Hoffenheim that he had not yet been vaccinated against the corona virus.
With partial understanding, this resulted in violent reactions and criticism.
