Stralsund (dpa / mv) - Because of the Corona vaccination failure in a Stralsund nursing home, the investigations could also be extended to other medical staff, according to the public prosecutor.

So far, criminal charges had been received against a doctor.

At the end of December, he had injected eight employees five times the dose of the vaccine against the Sars-CoV-2 virus.

Someone must have prepared the vaccinations, such as a nurse, said the spokesman for the Stralsund public prosecutor, Martin Cloppenburg, on Monday the German press agency.

You can currently get an overview of who was involved.

The public prosecutor's office is investigating negligent bodily harm.

Two complaints were received from unaffected people.

So far, however, there have been no criminal complaints from those directly affected.

Such requests are normally a prerequisite for prosecution, said Cloppenburg.

In special cases this can also be done without such requests.

It also still needs to be clarified to what extent the recipients of the excessively high vaccine doses were actually harmed.

Whether there will be an indictment will be decided at the end of the first quarter at the earliest.

After the incident, four of those affected were taken to hospital as a precaution.

However, after a few days they were all released.

Some had reported pain and swelling at the injection site, headache, general weakness and slight dizziness afterwards.

According to a report in the "Ostsee-Zeitung", six people are now symptom-free, while one is said to have worsened.

A possible connection with the incident is completely unclear, said District Administrator Stefan Kerth (SPD).
