Saarbrücken (dpa / lrs) - With the lifting of the prioritization of corona vaccinations with Astrazeneca funds, the Saarland Minister of Health Monika Bachmann (CDU) will create the basis for the next section of the “vaccination marathon”.
She said that on Thursday evening in Saarbrücken according to a message.
"Anyone who would like to take advantage of a vaccination offer can benefit from this offer through their general practitioner or specialist, provided they offer a vaccination with Astrazeneca."
Corona vaccinations will in future be possible for everyone with the Astrazeneca preparation if those willing to vaccinate decide to do so with their doctor. The prioritization with a fixed priority list for this vaccine had been completely canceled, Federal Health Minister Jens Spahn had previously announced after a corresponding decision with his country colleagues. "That means that when vaccinating in the doctor's office, the doctors decide who is now to vaccinate and when," said the CDU politician. Spahn had proposed the nationwide discontinuation of the prioritization at Astrazeneca.
The Saarland Prime Minister Tobias Hans (CDU) spoke out in a message on Thursday afternoon that the Astrazeneca corona vaccine should be released immediately for all those willing to vaccinate.
This means that even those who are not currently eligible due to age, previous illness or occupation can voluntarily be vaccinated with the vaccine.
For many people, the vaccination is a “huge ray of hope”.
