The 101-year-old Edith Kwoizalla from Halberstadt in Saxony-Anhalt was the first regular patient in Germany to receive the Biontech Pfizer vaccine against Covid-19.
In total, around 50 people were vaccinated in the Krüger senior center on Saturday.
In Germany, vaccination does not officially begin until Sunday, but the first vaccination doses were delivered by the state authorities on Saturday.
"Every day we wait is one day too many," said home operator Tobias Krüger.
Austria's Chancellor Sebastian Kurz expects a third corona wave and a massive increase in the number of infections across Europe in the coming year.
In the summer, a certain return to normality can be expected, said Kurz in an interview with ORF on Saturday.
"The first quarter of 2021 will certainly be an extreme challenge for Europe, the third wave will break in on us, and the number of infections will again increase massively in many European countries," said Kurz.
“After that, I assume that there will be constant relaxation due to the warmer temperatures, but also due to the steadily increasing number of those who are vaccinated.
And I expect that we will be able to return to normal in large parts in the summer. "
