North Rhine-Westphalia's Prime Minister Hendrik Wüst (CDU) has called for a "national show of strength" in vaccination in order to break the fourth corona wave.
The federal states would therefore "massively expand their vaccination capacities across the board," said Wüst on Thursday after the federal-state talks on the corona situation in Berlin.
The booster vaccinations have already started in the nursing and old people's homes.
Berlin - Now all people should be offered a booster vaccination at the earliest five months after the basic immunization.
In addition to the general practitioners, all countries massively expanded their vaccinations.
The NRW head of government is currently also the chairman of the Prime Minister's Conference.
According to the decision paper, the federal and state governments want to include mobile vaccination teams, vaccination centers, hospitals, low-threshold offers, medical practices, company doctors and doctors from the health authorities in the vaccination campaign.
Children between five and eleven years of age should also be offered a vaccination quickly after the approval of the necessary vaccine is due at the end of November and the corresponding availability in the second half of December after individual advice and risk assessment.
