Around 300 people have positioned themselves in Ebersberg for vaccination, corona measures and social cohesion.
Ebersberg
- A dense fog over the district town did not stop around 300 people from gathering at Marienplatz in Ebersberg for a rally.
Under the title "With solidarity and science through the pandemic!" the alliance against right-wing radicalism "Buntstatt Braun" together with "Respekt@Poing" called for the meeting.
The focus of the speeches late on Saturday morning was the commitment to the importance of the corona vaccination and the measures to combat the pandemic, as well as showing solidarity with the victims of Covid-19 and those people who are particularly feeling the hardships of the pandemic privately, professionally or socially to get.
The organizers distributed orange ribbons among the visitors, with which they should clarify the hygiene distance from each other.
Almost all visitors wore FFP2 masks.
The marketplace was well filled with around 300 event visitors.

Corona demo in Ebersberg: differentiation from opponents of vaccination and measures
The registered event with "Bunt-statt-Braun" spokeswoman Marthe Balzer as the leader of the meeting was clearly to be seen in form and content as a demarcation from the "Corona walks" of opponents of vaccination and measures also taking place in the district, which, loosely about organized on the Internet, do not identify an official organizer.
At the rally in Ebersberg, district politicians, for example from the SPD, Greens, Free Voters and CSU, also showed up.
In addition to statements of solidarity from district council SPD parliamentary group spokesman Albert Hingerl and district administrator Walter Brilmayer (CSU), the pandemic officer and chief intensive care physician at the district clinic, Dr.
Peter Lemberger.
District clinic chief physician supports event
"Show your colors, don't go on the defensive," demanded Brilmayer, with a view to the "denial of scientific knowledge", especially in relevant Internet forums.
Chief physician Lemberger thanked for the social support, reported on the current situation at the district clinic and called the corona vaccination a "very important way to fight and defeat the pandemic".

The police showed up at Marienplatz with around half a dozen emergency services.
Apparently, in case of disruption of the event by third parties, numerous emergency services were positioned in side streets.
The event ended around noon without any unexpected incidents.
