Potsdam (dpa / bb) - For the Brandenburger CDU parliamentary group leader in the state parliament, Jan Redmann, compulsory vaccinations for care workers in old people's and nursing homes is not an issue.
"As far as I know, it makes a significant difference whether the nurses have been informed about the vaccines in advance - this increases the willingness to vaccinate by double-digit percentages," said Redmann on Tuesday in Potsdam.
«My impression is that this has not yet happened everywhere.
In this respect, it is not necessary to talk about compulsory vaccination. "
He was shocked, however, that the willingness to vaccinate, especially among the medically trained nursing staff, was so low, remarked Redmann.
"I think that's partly irresponsible."
More education is needed.
SPD parliamentary group leader Erik Stohn also spoke out against compulsory vaccination and also demanded more advertising for vaccination.
"We have a high willingness to vaccinate in the east and this must now be strengthened through appropriate campaigns in order to get herd immunity as quickly as possible."
Bavaria's Prime Minister Markus Söder (CSU) had previously called for a debate on compulsory vaccination for nursing staff in old people's and nursing homes in order to increase protection there.

According to the parliamentary group leaders, there is no such obligation for the Brandenburg state parliament opposition either.
AfD parliamentary group leader Hans-Christoph Berndt sees - also in view of a short development time - risks in vaccinating against corona, so this is not an issue.
For the chairman of the left-wing parliamentary group, Sebastian Walter, compulsory vaccination is “not at all up for debate” at the moment.
"We need enough vaccines first," said Walter.
The chairman of the BVB / Free Voters parliamentary group, Péter Vida, said that his parliamentary group spoke out against compulsory vaccination.
