This would also be the early kick-off for the vaccination campaign in the district.

Two vaccinations per person

The vaccine is to be delivered in batches of 1000, so that it can then be vaccinated for four days. Two vaccinations per person were required, which was the real challenge according to the district administrator. In order to simplify the difficult logistics, there will also be a mobile vaccination team. This could then go to the old people’s homes, for example, so that the residents can save themselves the trip to the vaccination center.
