BCorona vaccination fatigue observed National Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians In some areas. Especially in vaccination centers, the frequency of vaccination is significantly decreasing.
Andreas Gassen, the head of statutory health insurance, explained that “a considerable number of people do not want to be vaccinated at all”. People who are not interested may be “pushed a little”, for example, having citizens tested will soon charge everyone who can theoretically be vaccinated. “Vaccination is the best personal protection,” he emphasized.
Disposal of unused vaccine
According to Garson, the vaccine runs the risk of being thrown away because it only provides larger bottles. In order to make full use of one vial, six vaccinated patients must arrive within a short period of time. But this situation is becoming less and less. “It is very important for the industry to provide this vaccine in a single dose,” Gasson said. “Otherwise the vaccine dose will expire.”
Some vaccines from AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson are currently more difficult to obtain and may have to be disposed of. “You will have to live with it.”
Currently has More than 60% of people in Germany have at least one dose of the vaccine against Covid-19. Nearly 50% of people have been fully vaccinated.
Hessen did not attend every five vaccination appointments
At the vaccination center in Hessen, an increasing number of agreed vaccination appointments have not been accepted recently. The Ministry of the Interior in Wiesbaden stated that the recent average miss rate is about 20%.
Nevertheless, under normal circumstances, unused vaccines will not be discarded due to short-term absence of citizens. The number of injection bottles prepared on site at the center will only be as large as the number actually used in the future. The country has not yet found any case of vaccine destruction due to the inability to vaccinate, resulting in excessive vaccine doses. So far, vaccination centers can only use unused doses in individual cases. It is understood that the background is mainly contaminated batches.
In order to increase the vaccination rate again, special vaccination activities are currently being carried out in the vaccination center. For example, students from Giessen University or Frankfurt football fans in front of the stadium will receive offers.
Bremen has child vaccination routes
According to Mayor Andreas Bovenschulte (SPD), Bremen is increasingly providing children with corona vaccination. It accepted the recommendation of the Permanent Vaccination Committee that children have a low risk of serious illness and therefore there is no need to vaccinate. This is what Bowen Schulte told the Augsburg Synagogue. “On the other hand, many parents are very insecure. They want their children to be vaccinated.” Provided them: “For this, we are establishing a special vaccination route with the pediatrician in our center. Then give the parents details. Suggestion.”
The mayor attributed the success of the Bremen vaccination campaign to the large vaccination centers operated by local businesses and aid organizations. “In our call center, the vast majority of callers did not even hang up, but were directly connected.” In the smallest federal state, almost 70% of the population has been vaccinated once, and 53.5% of the population received a comprehensive vaccine. Vaccination protection since Wednesday.
Companies and universities should ensure more vaccinations
The National Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians requires large companies and universities to make more commitments in vaccination activities. “Big employers can intervene more, just like universities, when the semester restarts,” said Vice Chancellor Stephen Hofmeister. “We think it is more appropriate than taking a vaccination bus at night in front of a disco.”
Only people over the age of 75 and those who have been taking drugs that suppress the immune system for a long time need to be vaccinated in the autumn. “On the other hand, healthy people aged 20 to 60 are still safe this year,” Hofmeister said.

People who are fully vaccinated can also be protected from Delta
A UK study confirmed the effectiveness of BioNTech/Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccines against highly infectious Delta variants coronavirusAccording to research published in the New England Journal of Medicine, two doses of each vaccine are almost as effective on the Delta variant as the previously dominant alpha variant.
Therefore, the two vaccinations using BioNTech / Pfizer are 88% effective in preventing symptomatic diseases caused by the Delta variant, while the effective rate against the Alpha variant is 93.7%. AstraZeneca’s dual vaccination can effectively protect 67% of people from the Delta variant, while the protection rate for the Alpha variant is 74.5%.
