Berlin (dpa / bb) - Berlin is expected to get around 18,000 vaccination doses for the start of the corona vaccinations.

Health Senator Dilek Kalayci (SPD) said on Friday the RBB evening show.

The vaccinations are scheduled to start on December 27th, and those affected will be invited by the authorities.

The first vaccinations are to be given to residents of nursing homes, people over the age of 80 and those in the nursing and medical sectors.

The procurement of the vaccine is in the hands of the federal government.

Most recently, Kalayci assumed that a maximum of 720,000 vaccine doses could be expected in Berlin for the first quarter of 2021.

Since the vaccination - depending on the substance - has to be repeated every two or three weeks, that would be enough for 360,000 Berliners.

At the end of March, not even a tenth of those living in the capital would be vaccinated.
