In the special outpatient clinic for vaccinations, travel and tropical medicine at the Medical University of Vienna, Univ. Prof. Dr. Ursula Wiedermann-Schmidt, the chairwoman of the national vaccination committee, and ao. Univ.-Prof. Dr. Thomas Szekeres, President of the Austrian Medical Association, to the syringes and vaccinate the first Austrians against COVID-19. Federal Chancellor Sebastian Kurz and Health Minister Rudolf Anschober will also be there. So the Sunday morning event turns into a really big vaccination show. Although Austria and other EU countries actually stole the show from Germany: Contrary to the agreements that EU-wide vaccination will be carried out from today, December 27, in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt, a 101-year-old was vaccinated yesterday lost. A total of 40 residents and 10 employees were vaccinated in the East German senior citizens’ center. So the race for vaccinations is on. Let’s hope that Austria goes along well and does not fall behind.
