Health Minister Spahn: “There may also be a setback with the vaccine”
Ahead of the coronavirus cabinet deliberations on prioritizing a future coronavirus vaccine, Federal Health Minister Jens Spahn (CDU) called on all Germans to have a broad discussion about which parts of the population should be vaccinated. first: “I think it’s important that it be political, but also social.” At all lunches, in the family or at work, there is a debate about who should get vaccinated first: the one with the highest professional risk. The one at risk. Or the one who has a lot of contact with others, “Spahn said Sunday night at the BILD talk” The Right Questions.
Spahn announced that the Bundestag would also deal with this issue legally: “With this vaccine in this pandemic situation, it makes sense for it to be fed back into the law,” said the Federal Minister of Health. However, a concrete prioritization can only be decided “when we know more about the vaccine,” Spahn told BILD.
Furthermore, the minister cautioned against being too optimistic about vaccine development: “We are counting and planning to do so early next year. But when developing a vaccine, there can always be a setback, ”Spahn said on BILD Live. Nobody can rule out “that even shortly before the final stretch there is still something in which you say: no, this vaccine cannot be approved. After a vaccine has been completed, “it will certainly be months before Germany is actually fully vaccinated. Because that also requires huge logistics, ”says Spahn.
