Stuttgart / Augsburg (dpa) - The health policy spokeswoman for the Union parliamentary group in the Bundestag, Karin Maag (CDU), has criticized the appointment of the corona vaccinations.
“It cannot be that you start a vaccination campaign and then cannot get any appointments,” said the Stuttgart member of the Bundestag for the “Augsburger Allgemeine” (Tuesday).
She tried in vain to reserve a vaccination appointment for her 85-year-old mother via the nationwide patient service on 116117.
She was referred to the cell phone app of the same name.
"But appointments are not yet activated in the app."
Maag said: “These are beginners' mistakes. That annoys me." According to the newspaper, the Federal Ministry of Health said that the federal states were responsible for vaccinations and appointments. "That is a matter of the country," a spokeswoman is quoted as saying. According to her, the federal states can use the appointment system behind the patient number, but they do not have to. Some countries wanted to forward the appointment allocation to their own systems on 116117.
