Berlin (dpa) - The vaccination campaign against the corona virus also reached the age president of the German Bundestag, Hermann Otto Solms, on Thursday.
The 80-year-old honorary chairman of the FDP received the first dose of the Biontech vaccine in Heuchelheim, Hesse - “finally”, as he explained, and obviously as the first member of the Bundestag.
Solms called on the population to do the same.
«Vaccinations are one of the greatest achievements of mankind.
It is a scientific success and an essential contribution to the fact that public life can be restarted, ”he informed the German press agency.
"Now production must be accelerated through economic incentives such as the Tempo premium and the dismantling of bureaucratic barriers."
The FDP politician had previously publicly complained about the slow scheduling.
