Cologne (dpa) - Karl Lauterbach (58) has undergone an eye operation.

He hoped that he would be fit again in a week, the SPD health expert told the German press agency in Cologne on Friday.

"I don't want to comment on this in the media."

Even if he currently has to slow down, he is continuing to follow the development of the corona pandemic.

The physician Lauterbach is a sought-after political advisor and talk show guest on Corona issues.
