Finally! The corona vaccine is just around the corner. The approval of the European health directorates is still pending, but is expected soon. Are people in Europe ready for distribution and does the population even want to undergo vaccination? The “Berner Zeitung” has compiled a full description.
In Germany they want to start vaccinations on December 27, when the European Medicines Agency approves the Biontech and Pfizer vaccine. The vaccine is first given to people over the age of 80. As well as employees of nursing homes and for the elderly and personnel of the ambulatory care sector.
In the second round, people aged 70 and over, people with dementia, people with trisomy 21 and transplant patients, as well as people in shelters for the homeless and asylum seekers, as well as people in close contact with those who need care, they receive the vaccine. Then come people over 60, people with chronic diseases, people “in a particularly relevant position in state institutions”, but also educators, teachers and people from the retail trade. The German government expects around 70 percent to be willing to get vaccinated.
There is great skepticism
In Austria, vaccinations are not available before Christmas Eve. At the moment it is not yet clear who will be vaccinated and when. According to a survey, 17 percent of the population currently wants to be vaccinated for sure.
The French vaccinate for the first time in homes for the elderly and the elderly. But there is great skepticism among the population. As the “Berner Zeitung” writes, 38 percent of the population does not want to be vaccinated.
Britain has started
Vaccinations began in Britain on December 8. Currently, 75 percent in the country probably want to get vaccinated.
It takes even longer in the Netherlands. So far, those responsible are aiming for vaccination to begin in mid-January. First, about 450,000 employees in clinics and nursing homes will be vaccinated. A survey showed a 57 percent willingness to vaccinate in the Netherlands.
Three times as many cans
Spain is the country with the highest vaccination rate in the world. But it looks different with the corona vaccination – as one survey showed, you only want to undergo the vaccination after a year or more. However, Spain has ordered around 140 million doses of vaccines for its 47 million inhabitants. And he wants to act in January if possible.
In recent surveys, preparation for vaccination has increased in Italy. 8 out of 10 Italians want to get vaccinated.
Situation in Switzerland
In Switzerland, the willingness to vaccinate is much lower. According to a survey, only half of the population wanted to be vaccinated. Switzerland vaccinates in 5 stages. High-risk patients first, then health workers, their environment, people in community facilities, and finally the rest of the population
