The Saxon Prime Minister Michael Kretschmer did not rule out compulsory corona vaccination before the Prime Minister's Conference on March 3.

In an interview with the FAS, he asked for Astra Zeneca's vaccine to be released for adults of all ages.

Kretschmer also announced a decision by the Prime Minister's Conference on rapid tests and criticized the failure of Jens Spahn's attempt to provide free antigen rapid tests for laypeople from March 1st.


At the moment Kretschmann rejects compulsory vaccination.

“It's a psychological question.

Whenever I talk about coercion, people close who could otherwise still be reached.

So now is the wrong time for this debate. "

Berlin's Governing Mayor Michael Müller (SPD) spoke out in favor of cautious easing despite the ongoing pandemic.

The chairman of the Prime Minister's Conference told the “Tagesspiegel” (Saturday) that “we cannot live permanently in lockdown”.

A “No Covid” strategy, as suggested by some scientists, is the right goal from a health perspective.

“But that cannot be the only yardstick for us, because it is only achievable in the long term and is very difficult.” According to Müller, this could have “fatal consequences” in the areas of social affairs, education and business.
