WELT AM SONNTAG:
What does the 81-year-old grandpa say to his grandchildren: When will he be vaccinated?
Jens Spahn:
Soon.
Unfortunately, not all of them can be vaccinated right away, which is why I have to ask for your patience.
But at over 80 he is one of the first.
WELT AM SONNTAG:
Thousands die during this time.
What could you have done better?
Spahn:
The pictures of empty vaccination centers give the wrong impression.
Together with the federal states, we said from the start that we were already building up the vaccination structure on a generous basis, even if the vaccine was still scarce.
So that the structures are in place when there is enough vaccine.
WELT AM SONNTAG:
Why is the vaccine scarce?
