The short video sequence gives the wrong impression. In the detailed version you can see that Lauterbach is apparently listening intently to the questioner.
Federal Minister of Health Karl Lauterbach and the President of the Robert Koch Institute, Lothar Wieler (60), explain the federal government’s corona policy to the capital correspondents in Berlin at regular intervals. So also on December 22, 2021.
When the chairwoman of the press conference, Angela Wefers, asks the SPD minister a question, his head suddenly pops forward.

A few seconds long clip of this scene is distributed with malicious comments on social media.
But in the detailed sequence (from 55:40 min.) it can be clearly seen that Lauterbach is obviously concentrating on the question: after four seconds, he turns his face in the direction of the questioner, and in order to answer, he completely straightens his head and upper body again.
