So far the individual countries are removed

Berlin. In old people's homes there is always Corona erosion-also in facilities in which the residents have already received the first vaccination. This is exactly why it is important that the second vaccine dose is administered there as soon as possible. The countries develop differently quickly, as a survey by the Editorial Network Germany (RND) shows among the 16 Ministries of Health of the States.

Berlin is currently the pioneer at home. The Senate Ministry of Health assumes that all vaccinations in the care facilities will be ready in early February. At the end of January, more than 80 percent of the residents had received the first vaccination, and almost half had already received the second dose.

Bremen wants the vaccinations in the nursing homes in the second week of February. Some other federal states, including Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia, expect the vaccinations in mid-February.

The vaccination is much slower in Brandenburg. Due to the lack of vaccines, some appointments had to be postponed, according to the Ministry of Health, many first vaccinations can only take place from February 22nd. In Saarland, too, the vaccinations are expected to be fully completed in mid -March.

Thuringia is at the back of vaccinations: The first vaccinations in the care facilities there should only be completed at the beginning of the second quarter, i.e. at the beginning of April, and only then can the second vaccination take place. The Hessian Ministry of Health also assumes that "for the group with the highest priority, many weeks will be needed".

The willingness to vaccinate grows steadily

The number of people who do not want to be vaccinated are only recorded in a few federal states. Vaccination against Coronavirus is voluntary and such a quota would put pressure on people who reject a vaccination, said a spokeswoman for the Lower Saxony Ministry of Health. Nevertheless, some federal states can at least approach this value. The Hamburg Senate estimates the acceptance rate to around 80 percent, up to 90 percent in Bremen. So far, only around 8 percent of the residents did not want to be vaccinated in Saarland.

In addition, the willingness seems to grow steadily. The spokeswoman for the Bavarian Ministry of Health emphasized: "After the feedback from the vaccination centers, there are always subsequent registrations of residents who originally did not want to be vaccinated."

The vaccination status in the federal states at a glance:

in Baden-Württemberg around 48 percent of the residents of retirement homes have received their first vaccination. In addition, according to the Ministry of Health, 13 percent have already received the second vaccination. The Ministry assumes that the first vaccinations will be completed by mid -February. The vaccinations should then be completely completed by mid -March.

In Bavaria, around 77 percent of all senior home residents have already received the first vaccination, 36 percent have also received the second dose. According to the current status, all retirement and nursing homes should have been visited at the latest at the latest at the latest. "The second vaccinations take place three weeks after the first vaccination," said the spokeswoman for the ministry. The ministry has no information about the willingness of the residents to be vaccinated. "However, after the feedback from the vaccination centers, there are always later registrations of residents who originally did not want to be vaccinated."

The Senate for Health in Berlin assumes that the vaccinations in nursing facilities "in early February" will still be completed. At the end of January, around 82 percent of Berlin nursing homes received the first vaccination, 45 percent had already received the second dose.

According to the Brandenburg Ministry of Health, 67 percent of all residents of retirement homes have already received corona vaccination. Since there are currently not enough vaccines available, the approach of the State of Brandenburg is delayed, so that all facilities are fully vaccinated there at the end of March.

According to a statement by the Senate for Health of the City of Bremen, around 75 percent of the retirement home residents were vaccinated. This means that the first and second vaccination in Bremen will be completed in the care facilities at the latest next week. In most care facilities in Bremen, up to 90 percent of the residents want to be vaccinated.

Hamburg wants to offer the first vaccination dose in all care facilities by the end of this week. The planning also stipulates that "the second vaccination in all care facilities will take place on a broad front by the end of the month," said the Hamburg Social Authority. The acceptance rate for the vaccinations is currently around 80 percent.

in the state of Hesse it will take some time for all seniors to be fully vaccinated. According to the Ministry of Health, around 60 percent of the residents have received the first vaccination so far. "In view of the current and expected small amount of vaccine doses that the Federal Government provides us, we will need many weeks for the group with the highest priority," said a spokesman for the Ministry

In Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, the first vaccinations took place in around 93 percent of old people's and nursing homes in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. The Ministry cannot estimate when the second vaccinations will be completed. The aim is that all residents of old people's and nursing homes want to be "vaccinated immediately".

In Lower Saxony, 65 percent of the seniors received their first vaccination in facilities and 28 percent their second dose. The original goal of performing the vaccinations in all households by early February could not be achieved due to delivery problems. The vaccinations will now be "extended to February," said the Ministry of Health.

In over 90 percent of old and care facilities in North Rhine-Westphalia, vaccinations have already been carried out. According to the Ministry of Health, the end of the nationwide vaccinations in the facilities is planned until mid -February. Although the ministry does not have a number of seniors who do not want to be vaccinated, the "willingness to vaccinate in old people's and nursing homes has increased continuously".

For nursing home residents in Rhineland-Palatinate, almost 80 percent of all residents of nursing homes have received the first vaccination, and 11 percent have already received the second vaccination. "Our goal is to have vaccinations carried out in all facilities by mid -February," said the Ministry of Health on request. The acceptance of vaccination in the retirement homes is around 80 percent.

In Saarland, 66 percent of the elderly in care facilities received the first vaccination, 46 percent already the second. The Saarland Ministry of Health is currently assuming that vaccinations will be completed in mid -March. So far, only 8 percent of the elderly did not want to be vaccinated.

Around 37 percent of Saxon seniors have received a first vaccination dose so far, four percent of a second vaccination. "The aim is that all residents of nursing facilities in Saxony receive their first vaccination from the mobile vaccination team until mid -February and the second vaccination 3 weeks later," said the Saxon Ministry of Health. The state of Saxony also does not collect any data about how many people cannot be vaccinated. However, there is a "very high willingness to vaccinate and a very high demand for vaccination" in the state.

in Saxony-Anhalt had received 64 percent of residents of old people's and nursing homes by February 3, and around 35 percent had already received the second vaccination. The aim is to have all retirement and nursing homes with vaccination dates by the end of the month.

In the old and care facilities in Schleswig-Holstein, 44,338 first vaccinations and 3,379 second vaccinations for employees and residents were carried out by the end of January. The Ministry of Health has no division into the two groups. According to the ministry, the vaccinations in the inpatient care facilities are almost complete, which is why the goal of completing the vaccinations in the inpatient care facilities by the end of February.

At the request of the RND, the Thuringian Ministry of Health announced that no difference between residents and employees was made when recording the number of vaccinations. According to the Ministry of Health, it can only be estimated that more than half of the residents of nursing homes have already received the first vaccination. The first vaccinations in the care facilities in Thuringia should be completed at the beginning of the second quarter, i.e. the second vaccinations will take three to four weeks longer.
