Federal Health Minister Jens Spahn (CDU) is optimistic about a summer vacation in Europe.
“Traveling within the EU is unlikely to be dependent on vaccination.
You will also be able to move around Europe-wide with the tests, "said Spahn of the" Rheinische Post "(Saturday).
He himself is planning his vacation in Germany.
"In this hopefully last phase of the pandemic, I would not plan any major long-distance trips, the North Sea rather than the South Sea."
However, the German Medical Association warns against shortening the interval between two Astrazeneca vaccinations in order to be considered vaccinated earlier. The shortening of the interval must be reconsidered, said medical president Klaus Reinhardt the "editorial network Germany" (Saturday). "If the argument is that people can benefit from easing earlier, I think that's questionable," he emphasized. Studies have shown that a greater interval between the two vaccinations can have positive effects on the effectiveness of the vaccine. SPD health expert Karl Lauterbach also criticized this.
According to Spahn, Germany is well equipped for mutations of the coronavirus and is now among the top 5 for sequencing worldwide.
"And we also secure vaccines that can be adapted to mutations in the EU framework agreements," said Spahn.
According to the mRNA researchers, these developments are possible within six to eight weeks, the subsequent approval is feasible in one to two months.
