Mainz (dpa / lrs) - The parliamentary groups of the SPD and FDP have rejected the allegations of CDU state chief Julia Klöckner of the state government's vaccination policy as false.

"This is how you unsettle the population," said the parliamentary manager of the FDP parliamentary group, Marco Weber, on Monday.

Klöckner should stop immediately.

SPD parliamentary group leader Alexander Schweitzer accused Klöckner of “a sporty relationship with the facts”.

The CDU should rather help to ensure that enough vaccine arrives in Rhineland-Palatinate instead of campaigning for the state election.

The CDU state chairman and federal agriculture minister Klöckner accused Prime Minister Malu Dreyer (SPD) on Saturday of engaging in a “crazy competition for a top rank” among the federal states with her government for corona vaccinations.

In doing so, she had failed to keep enough vaccine for second vaccinations.

It is now a matter of implementing the vaccination strategy "with a lot more pressure", said Schweitzer with a view to new mutants of the corona virus.

Greens parliamentary group leader Bernhard Braun emphasized: "We consider opening discussions to be premature."

The new provisions of the amended Corona regulation for the lockdown took effect on Monday.

Closures in restaurants, culture and retail, with the exception of everyday goods, will be extended until February 14th.

Compulsory attendance at schools will also be lifted by then.

A new version of the mask requirement stipulates that so-called surgical masks or mouth-nose covers of the KN95 / N95 or FFP2 standards must be worn on buses, trains and in shops.

Everyday masks made of fabric are then no longer permitted there.
