Green parliamentary group leader Katrin Göring-Eckardt had said that the traffic light had agreed on compulsory vaccination in individual areas. However, this was not correct. The SPD, FDP and the Greens are apparently still in talks.

The possible future government partners SPD, Greens and FDP want to talk about compulsory corona vaccination for certain areas, according to the Greens.

"The traffic lights will only be advised about compulsory vaccination in special facilities in a separate procedure, regardless of the Infection Protection Act," said a spokeswoman for the parliamentary group on Monday for the dpa news agency in Berlin.

Before that, Green Party leader Katrin Göring-Eckardt had said: “We will need a compulsory vaccination for facilities, for nursing homes, for day-care centers, et cetera.

We'll get this off the ground, ”said Goering-Eckardt on Monday.

When asked, she had confirmed that the members of the desired traffic light coalition were in agreement on this issue.

According to later information from the Greens, this is not the case.

A possible vaccination requirement for certain areas would not be part of the reform of the Infection Protection Act, which is to be passed this week, but a separate legislative process, explained Göring-Eckardt.
