Düsseldorf (dpa / lnw) - From the point of view of the CDU in the Düsseldorf state parliament, every child from the age of twelve should receive a vaccination offer by the end of the summer vacation.

That is the "clear goal," said the family policy spokesman for the CDU parliamentary group, Jens Kamieth on Monday.

The SPD in the state parliament had previously presented a position paper on the subject and, among other things, called for mobile vaccination teams in schools and daycare centers.

The opposition had also called on the black-and-yellow state government to start planning a child and youth vaccination strategy as soon as possible.

According to the CDU, this was already addressed in April when Biontech / Pfizer applied for emergency approval for children from the age of twelve in the USA.

“I am aware of the many acute questions that parents have with regard to a possible vaccination of their children: When will this be possible and are there any risks?

What kind of say do you have?

What does that mean with regard to daycare or school, but also summer vacation?

We want to offer you a transparent solution as soon as possible, ”said Kamieth.

“As soon as the vaccine is approved for children and adolescents, the vaccinations must be able to start.

The state government has no time to lose and is not allowed to continue to live from hand to mouth.

The plans have to be in place by the end of May, "demanded SPD MP Lisa-Kristin Kapteinat:" Everyone is now looking forward to summer, but autumn is just as likely to come.

And then the vaccination campaign for children and adolescents must have long been in full swing. "
