Stuttgart (dpa / lsw) - The SPD in Baden-Württemberg has criticized the state government for back and forth in the order of those eligible for vaccination.

«You don't vaccinate with headlines.

It needs clear sequences and no fidgeting about priorities, ”said the health expert of the SPD parliamentary group, Rainer Hinderer, on Sunday.

In the past few days, a different group entitled to vaccinate has been named in practically every document of the state government, without the employees in the telephone centers having correct information about this or the Internet platform having worked, according to Hinderer.

The state government is creating confusion and chaos through its actions.

Prime Minister Winfried Kretschmann (Greens) recently advocated loosening the prioritization of vaccinations if the vaccine should not be used due to the reluctance of people.

Prioritization is important, at least as long as the vaccine is in short supply.

“At the same time, we cannot afford the vaccine standing around and not being vaccinated because some of those entitled reject it.

Then we have to loosen up this strict regime and vaccinate people who are not yet in turn after the prioritization, ”emphasized Kretschmann in an interview with“ Welt am Sonntag ”.

The state government had recently announced an early corona vaccination for teachers and educators as well as for police officers.

These groups of people are only taken into account at a later point in time in the recommendations for the vaccination sequence of the Standing Vaccination Committee.

However, since the Astrazeneca vaccine in particular meets with reservations in some people and doses are therefore sometimes not vaccinated immediately, numerous politicians in other federal states had called for a departure from the previously planned vaccination sequence.

Bavaria's Prime Minister Markus Söder (CSU), for example, said the “Bild am Sonntag”: “Before he stays lying down, vaccinate whoever wants to.

No can of Astrazeneca should be left or thrown away. "
