The fact that a vaccine against Covid-19 developed in Germany is administered earlier in other countries than in Germany is absolutely inexplicable for the AfD.

"In the EU, only papers are checked," said the parliamentary manager of the AfD parliamentary group, Bernd Baumann, on Tuesday in Berlin.

The fact that the delay in the approval of the vaccine from Biontech and Pfizer is to be equated with more security, as claimed by Health Minister Jens Spahn (CDU), is therefore wrong.

According to him, four of the 89 AfD MPs are currently demonstrably infected with the corona virus.

Group vice Tino Chrupalla ruled out the spread of the virus in the AfD as a result of the federal party conference in Kalkar at the end of November.

Chrupalla, who is also the party leader and lives in the Görlitz district, said he would not let Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU) and the Prime Minister dictate "how I should celebrate Christmas".

His children were looking forward to Christmas like every year.

Görlitz is a corona hotspot, but that is mainly due to the severe aging of the population in East Saxony and the fact that the old people's homes were not equipped with masks and corona tests at an early stage and across the board.
