For a year now, the coronavirus has kept us in a kind of restless state of emergency.
It demands a lot from everyone.
The Germans have supported a lot.
In the beginning it was almost exemplary how they practiced personal responsibility and obedience.
But approval is crumbling and is rapidly falling in some parts of the country.
Why?
Because the nonchalance in procuring the vaccine is just as incomprehensible as the seemingly decadent oversupply of doses that are not inoculated.
At the end of this month, if the vaccination rate remains unambitious, it could be five million doses.
That is why we ask our Chancellor whether she is now making an unbureaucratic, radically pragmatic vaccination policy possible swiftly and comprehensively in the sense of a departure into the confident.
After more than a year of crisis, practical decisions are needed - otherwise it is not just citizens' freedom that is at stake.
