The dam has finally broken: Annalena Baerbock surprised her two competitors on Sunday evening by pleading for compulsory vaccination for certain professional groups.

It was different in the first round of three.

All three candidates for Chancellor agreed that there should be no compulsory vaccination in general.

It won't be long now before this front continues to crumble, for the banal reason that nobody really understands why it ever existed.

No compulsory vaccination for nursing staff, in hospitals, daycare centers, schools, for doctors (possibly also the same doctors who vaccinate)?

Baerbock is right: What is taken as a matter of course for Bundeswehr soldiers who had to lend a hand in every nook and cranny of the pandemic cannot be unreasonable for such professional groups.

It would be wrong consideration.

France has been taking a different path for several weeks - and has been successful with it.

Are the Greens taking a risk?

It is a good vehicle for them to become the advocate of the majority who did everything right.

The federal government's vaccination campaign week (why only one week?) Will not change the fact that this state pressure has to be voluntary.

The vaccination rate can only be increased to well over 80 percent if the proof of vaccination has a clear advantage, namely saying goodbye to the corona regime, i.e. normality. The political ingenuity is great to avoid compulsory vaccination. Everyday life boils down to that anyway.
