Potsdam (dpa / bb) - Brandenburg's Prime Minister Dietmar Woidke (SPD) urges a quick expansion of corona vaccinations and sees deficits in the previous vaccination strategy.

"We want and we have to get better together," said Woidke of the German Press Agency after the first meeting of the so-called Corona vaccination cabinet on Tuesday.

"There haven't been any vaccines in the last eight weeks."

That is different now.

“It is therefore unacceptable if Brandenburg ranks last nationwide in terms of the vaccination rate for first vaccinations.

That does not work like this.

Quick remedial action is required here. "

The vaccinations had progressed rather slowly in the past few weeks until vaccine deliveries came again.

Health Minister Ursula Nonnemacher (Greens) is therefore under criticism.

Previously, SPD parliamentary group leader Erik Stohn had called for more speed and indirectly criticized the green coalition partner.

According to the head of government, the main thing is closer and better coordination of the corona measures between all levels, including the districts.

“It's about becoming more efficient together, wherever possible and necessary.

And personally I think: It is necessary. "

Counties, municipalities, hospitals have offered help.

«Here we want to act more unbureaucratically than before, faster and more pragmatically.

This concerns information, availability, appointment allocation and vaccination itself, especially for the particularly vulnerable people. "

According to the State Chancellery, the Corona cabinet was set up on its initiative.

Woidke, Nonnemacher, Interior Minister Michael Stübgen (CDU), State Chancellor Kathrin Schneider and Finance Minister Katrin Lange (both SPD) take part.
