Note: This post will be sent to you without a narration. O-SOUND MAJOR GENERAL CARSTEN BREUER, HEAD OF CORONA CRISIS STAFF, BUNDESKANZLERAMT “I think we really have to stay tuned. And I can only ask everyone to go and get vaccinated throughout Germany. Just boosting, just increasing vaccination protection is at all a chance to at least keep the omicron wave in check and to be able to prepare for it. ” “We also talked about critical infrastructures, we also talked about the effects of Omikron on our social life. And I think one of the essential points there too is that, in addition to creating and reviewing the existing contingency plans that are in action that here, too, in all the critical areas, one again looks exactly at how high the vaccination rates are. O-TON MINISTE-PRESIDENT OF BAVARIA MARKUS SÖDER (CSU) “First of all, I think it’s positive that there is a recommendation for mandatory vaccination. I think it is very important. We now need a parallel recommendation from the Federal Government’s expert committee, including the medical one Scientists, who should be captured by how wide and deep that should be. ” “Personally, I would think it would be good if the federal government made a proposal for compulsory vaccination as soon as possible and not through group applications. Why? Because these group applications cannot of course cover the entire dimension I think it is wrong that this only takes place via individual majorities in parliament, but a clear proposal from the Federal Ministry of Health and the traffic light for what this vaccination obligation should look like. And honestly “Every day I find almost too late that it takes longer. I would find it better as soon as possible. Because overall, again with regard to this, it increases everyone’s willingness to vaccinate.”
