Disagreement about compulsory vaccination in nursing professions
Nationwide, hospital staff went on a warning strike on Tuesday. The employees are demanding five percent more salary. The trade union Verdi, which is currently in the collective bargaining for the public service countries, had called for industrial action. In Munich, for example, the Großhadern Clinic was attacked. Among the strikers, the politically discussed mandatory vaccination in the health care system was also an issue. O-TON SARAH PENNIELLO “Well, I am in favor of compulsory vaccination in nursing professions, because I can see that we currently have so many corona patients on the ward. It never ends. And in general I am also in favor of compulsory vaccination because otherwise the pandemic won’t stop there. ” O-TON BRIGITTE GUSTOVIC “I’m against it. I would suggest that everyone decide for themselves.” O-TON SEBNEM GÜMÜS “I work in the Covid intensive care unit and I am more for it. We are now also seeing the patients who are vaccinated twice and are in very poor condition with us. And I am simply for it.” O-TON LUISA REICHERT “I think that compulsory vaccinations will only be established for care – I don’t know. Then one or the other of the care workers thinks about giving up after all. And that would not help any of us.” SPD General Secretary Lars Klingbeil had recently dampened expectations of an early decision on compulsory vaccination. This would be more of a question of weeks, he told the RTL / ntv broadcasters.
