Fewer and fewer Pikser: the city and district of Offenbach complain about low values in the number of corona vaccinations.
In the district and in the city of Offenbach, fewer and fewer people are being vaccinated against the corona virus. The district administration speaks in a press release of a low, the city announces on FR request that the vaccination center there was only 22 percent full the previous week.
296 vaccinations were counted on Tuesday in the district’s vaccination center in Heusenstamm – as many as last in February, when the vaccine for the Covid-19 vaccination was still in short supply. The number of those vaccinated is only increasing very slowly, according to the district administration.
So far, a total of 231 277 vaccinations have been administered in the vaccination center in Heusenstamm, by the mobile teams and three pilot practices. 126 378 citizens are vaccinated for the first time, 104 899 for the second time. A total of 356,000 people live in the Offenbach district.
Since there is currently enough vaccine available, the district is now offering vaccinations without an appointment. Every day from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., all adults who live in the district can be “piked” at the vaccination center – with a free choice of vaccine.
In the previous week, 1228 vaccine doses were administered in the city of Offenbach. “We last had lower numbers at the end of March,” says press spokesman Fabian El Cheikh. Two weeks ago there were 3059 vaccine doses, three weeks ago it was 4340. Due to this development, the state of Hesse will discontinue the appointment allocation platform – this means that you can then be vaccinated in the Offenbach vaccination center in the town hall without an appointment.
The city has reacted to the development: It is increasingly offering mobile vaccinations in the city, which are carried out by the teams at the vaccination center. In addition, spontaneous vaccination campaigns have been taking place for some time, during which it was already possible to come to the vaccination center spontaneously without an appointment – such as yesterday Wednesday.
A total of 118 285 vaccinations have been carried out in the city so far. 80,426 of them in the vaccination center in Offenbach and through mobile teams, 37,859 by July 11th with general practitioners and specialists.
