It's not anything to laugh about but it does make you sit and ponder.
N-TV had a short update today over a fairly high-ranking member of the Bundestag....from the FDP Party.
Hermann Otto Solms is eighty years old, and is a senior president of the German Bundestag....which has a fair amount of rank attached to it.
Yesterday, he sat down and did an interview....over Covid-19, and he has this interesting prospective.
You see....for three weeks....as a member of the priority two group (the ninety-year old folks get ahead of him)....he's been trying to get a reservation for a vaccination appointment. Results? Nothing.
He has apparently tried the internet program, and it doesn't seem to work. He's done the phone calls, and that doesn't seem to work.
As he says...."Nobody felt responsible."
The fact that he's living in Berlin but not really a Berlin resident? Well....no one says much but that might also part of the problem.
N-TV bringing up Israel? Well, yeah....they brought up the fact now that 20-percent of the nation was done around the 21st of January. You can figure the end point will be reached in roughly four weeks, at the current pace of things.
Then this curious observation gets brought up....the Bundestag guy had talked to his pharmacist. For the entire period 2020....this guy had sold the least amount of antibiotics ever (for a year). It's just odd in his mind....all this non-flu business, and normal infections that you'd have....just plain disappeared.
Yeah, it was a slam of sorts, but it's also an indicator of serious problems and how the goal of reaching 75-percent of German society by mid-summer.....probably won't happen.
