Is the German Vaccination Process 'Broke'?

 Look....Germans are driven on processes, political promises, and the public being trusting of a magnificent effort being made.  All three have crapped out to some degree in terms of Covid-19 and recent weeks.

The pace?  Presently, 4.4-percent of the population have had the first vaccination, and around 2.3-percent have achieved the second vaccination (as of 25 Feb 2021).  

I think around the country....people kinda thought that things would have speeded up in the second month (they did actually speed up).  The delayed effect or perception?  I suspect this leads back to people asking themselves....other than grandma, do you know anyone who has been vaccinated, and the answer is 'no'.

If you counted up man-hours by the Merkel team to chat over Covid-19 and the vaccination business....it probably goes up into the tens of thousands of man-hours (if you go to the state and regional level).  I suspect that half the population is fed up with the chatter, and they just want a 'light-at-the-end-of-the-tunnel'.

So I would say that the process isn't broke, but it's not exactly a BMW-like assembly line where x-amount of production occurs each day, and things seem to work wonderfully.

The AstraZenica situation?  If you stand around and ask a hundred Germans in a pub over over their acceptance of this brand for the vaccination business....I doubt if you can find more than 15-percent who are accepting of the brand.  Yeah, this has disturbed the political folks and the virus experts.  

Yesterday, I watched a news piece where chatter is suggesting that anyone (not on the priority two list but further down)....probably will get a chance at the AstraZenica vaccine.  More to come by next week on this topic.  

It's a unscripted drama, and you just to accept that.
