Chancellor Angela Merkel's chief of staff has said Germany expects everyone willing to be vaccinated to have received a first dose of a Covid-19 shot by the end of July or early August, Reuters reports.
"Given the supplies we have and depending on how high vaccination willingness is, we can expect that by the end of July and beginning of August everyone who wants to will have received their first vaccination," Helge Braun told ARD television.
Braun said high vaccination rates and levels of immunity against the virus will be decisive against the Delta variant, which he expects will be dominant in Germany within weeks.
