From the beginning of April, the resident doctors in Germany are to begin nationwide with corona vaccinations.

The federal and state ministers agreed on this in the health ministers' conference on Monday, as the German press agency learned from participants.

The vaccine is to be delivered to practices in the normal way via wholesalers and pharmacies.

The bureaucratic effort for the doctor's office should be reduced to a minimum, it said.

The vaccination centers are to remain in place for the time being.

Agreed appointments there should be retained.

According to the Federal Ministry of Health, 2.5 million people in Germany had been fully vaccinated by Sunday.

That's three percent of the population.

5.2 million people have received at least one dose of vaccine.
