On Friday morning, the editorial network Germany published a quote from the head of the World Medical Association, Ulrich Montgomery: "If the vaccine is produced on continental European soil, the company must be forbidden from shipping it outside the EU." That was at 7:33 am.

It was the most compressed variant of what has been going on in federal politics and the EU Commission for days: demanding radical measures against more successful countries, belittling the complete failure in your own country with obvious eyewash and at the same time proudly pointing out that you are not a “vaccine nationalist” yourself " be.
(Which, by the way, means playing down the term "nationalist".)

Not only are the British, Americans, Israelis and Serbs faster and better at vaccinating, but also the EU countries Denmark, Slovenia, Lithuania, Spain and Italy.
Are these all “vaccination nationalists”?

In Germany, hardly any federal state even manages to set up a functioning website for registration in the vaccination center.

The Federal Minister of Health also speaks with pathos.
When it comes to restricting the freedom of citizens, the government goes boldly ahead.
On the other hand, it is asking too much that it also draws conclusions from its own failure.

But experts criticize this decision.
