Huayu News According to the German version of the European Times, although Germany has launched the first round of COVID-19 vaccination work on December 27, the vaccination work has made unsatisfactory due to logistical transportation reasons and insufficient vaccines. Vaccine supply shortages have been reported in many federal states such as Berlin and Bavaria, and the vaccination work has been progressing very slowly. According to Biography, there are currently situations in German states that "difficulty in making appointments and vaccination".
German media tried to call the vaccination appointment hotline in Bawuzhou, but the reply was: "At present, all vaccination quotas have been fully completed, please wait patiently." The Hesse hotline automatically replied: "There are no vaccines available at present, and vaccination appointments will be opened as early as January 12." Almost all the replies received on the appointment phone are similar. Only the only vaccination center in Merseburg in Saan State is open to the public, and the rest of the centers have not been put into use so far.
In the face of criticism from all walks of life, German Federal Minister of Health Span called on the people to remain patient. He said: At this stage, the new crown vaccine is very scarce in countries around the world. According to statistics, so far, nearly 400,000 people in Germany have received immunization injections, most of whom are the elderly in nursing homes and nursing homes. He agreed that vaccination work must be carried out "accelerated" and that everyone hopes to return to normal life as soon as possible.
Span said: The German people must be united and have enough patience to resist the epidemic. Span promised to vaccinate everyone with the COVID-19 vaccine by the summer of 2021. He said: "We have ordered sufficient vaccines, more than enough." According to the Daily News, Germany has ordered more than 130 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine from Moderna and Pfizer/New Biotechnology, and the new biotech vaccine production base in Marburg will also be put into use in February.
htmlOn January 6, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommended that the European Commission issue a conditional marketing license to the new crown vaccine produced by Moderna, the United States. The Moderna vaccine has also become the second new crown vaccine approved for marketing by the EMA. European Commission President von der Leyen said that the Moderna vaccine will be approved as soon as possible for use in EU countries. It is reported that the EU has ordered 160 million doses of vaccine from Moderna, the German federal government has also ordered 50 million doses. It is expected that 1.5 million doses will arrive in Germany a few weeks after the vaccine is approved.It is reported that the number of vaccines ordered by the EU from the US Moderna company is only half of that of the Pfizer/Bionew technology new crown vaccine. Not only because the Moderna vaccine is too expensive, with an average dose of 14.70 euros, the EU also believes that the Trump administration may issue a ban at any time to restrict vaccine exports.
Before the Moderna vaccine was officially put into use, insufficient vaccine volume was still the biggest problem for Germany and the EU at this stage. In the first round of vaccination work, medical staff found that the actual number of shots that the new crown vaccine produced by Pfizer/Biotech can be vaccinated higher than expected. By using more efficient syringes, each bottle of vaccine can be drawn with 6 doses instead of 5 doses. In this way, the available vaccine doses have increased by 20% compared to the original one, and the excess doses have to some extent made up for the current vaccine shortage.
At present, syringe manufacturers have submitted an application to the EMA, and the new injection injection is expected to be approved as early as Wednesday. Local governments will also step up the procurement of syringes to avoid further delays in vaccination work due to delays in procurement or transportation.
