Good idea, bad implementation: Spahn’s FFP2 mask campaign is a health risk – politics



[ad_1]

Someone has yet to keep track of things, especially in such a difficult situation. Health Minister Jens Spahn does not seem to be the one suffering from it. Why? You have good intentions that you want to send FFP2 masks to the more than 27 million potential high-risk patients. But how!

While the Bundestag chancellor calls for a further reduction in contacts due to her circumstances, Spahn sends those at risk on her way, literally and in a bureaucratic sense, to obtain urgently needed masks from a pharmacy.

This is where Wolfgang Kubicki comes in. In his latest Facebook post, the liberal vice-president of the Bundestag wrote: “This is not only dangerous from the point of view of protection against infection, but also sheer insanity in social and economic terms.

Those who do not have mobility and people in the countryside, where the pharmacy is not around the corner, are at a disadvantage ”. So far, no Spahn has clearly denied the big picture.

What to do that would be more sensible? Instead of millions of counterfeit-proof coupons that Spahn wants to send to each individual (by the way, what a waste of money and time, because it takes a lot of time), the masks could better be ordered directly and then shipped free of charge, right?

You should be able to handle that. Once again Kubicki: “Then you could also forgo the 2 euro contribution, because instead of the 6 euro that Mr. Spahn spends per mask, you pay around one euro per piece in the corresponding online trade and even You receive it free at your door.

Bremen proves it: the approach is correct

It is schizophrenic that citizens are faced with the choice of following their Chancellor’s appeal and staying home or Jens Spahn’s request to collect masks that will protect them from infection. “

And that’s what a user writes quickly, Carsten Stoewing: He is a risk patient, asthma and COPD, by the way, he is still 64 years old. 14 kilometers to the pharmacy, back. This can be done by bus, during school transport or by taxi.

You can keep the masks. Bus too dangerous and taxi € 50.00. Amazon delivers at least 15 to 20 pieces for this. ” Perhaps Spahn can get another overview. Because the action is already correct: the state of Bremen has the best and the fewest number of infected people because the risk groups are equipped with FFP2 masks.
