On Saturday it was announced that the cabinet will also give priority to people who work in acute care (such as IC, emergency care and ambulance) when vaccinating.

03.00 – ‘Privacy legislation on vaccinations can lead to problems’
Not every doctor wants to be vaccinated and due to privacy legislation, an employer is not allowed to ask about this, but that can lead to problems in hospitals. That suspicion from Hans Schoo, director of the Rijnstate Hospital in Arnhem, in Nieuwsuur. According to him, it will be difficult to plan who can work in which department if it is unclear who has and has not had an injection.
–
“That’s actually inconvenient,” he says. “That means that we may be providing unsafe care. Patients must also be able to trust that they will not become infected with us. I think it is really very serious.” That is why Schoo asked the inspectorate last week how his hospital should meet the conditions for good and quality care. He has not yet received an answer.
