AstraZeneca stop: "You should be clear about what you know and what you don't"

WORLD:

Ms. Paul, a nurse in Austria died after an AstraZeneca vaccination.

Nevertheless you will continue to be vaccinated.

In Germany, AstraZeneca has been vaccinated since Monday.

Are the Austrians tougher?

Katharina Paul:

In Austria, too, the mood is currently heated.

In the meantime, however, many Austrians feel that it is right to continue.

There are many here who long for vaccinations because they are linked to hope and a promise of political freedom, the light at the end of the tunnel.

According to our panel survey, 47 percent have wanted a vaccination since the beginning of the year.

That is significantly more than in December.

At the same time, we observe that the positions are becoming more and more entrenched in extremes.

Either you want to be vaccinated against corona immediately or under no circumstances.

WORLD:

In Germany, vaccinations with AstraZeneca are temporarily suspended.

"That is a professional decision," says Health Minister Jens Spahn (CDU).

Or it could have been a healthy political instinct.

How much government can a vaccination campaign take?
