German health minister confident "enough people" willing to take AZ shot

Thu, 01st Apr 2021 10:33

BERLIN, April 1 (Reuters) - The AstraZeneca
coronavirus vaccine's proven effectiveness means there will be
no problem finding enough people willing to take it, German
Health Minister Jens Spahn said.

"I am certain we will find enough people willing to take the
AstraZeneca vaccine because the protection it offers is good,"
he told reporters on Thursday.

Reports of extremely rare, but severe, side-effects after
the vaccine was administered have prompted authorities in
several countries including Germany to recommend that the shot
not be used on younger people.
