Germany’s Spahn: Hope to start COVID-19 vaccination before year-end

Germany’s Health Minister Jens Spahn said on Tuesday that COVID-19 infection numbers and the death toll in Germany are too high, per Reuters. “We hope to start COVID-19 vaccination before the end of the year,” Spahn added.

Meanwhile, the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) in a recently published report said that the COVID-19 situation in Germany is worse than ever and there is a risk that it could get even worse. The RKI further noted that all age groups in the country are affected by the coronavirus.

These comments don’t seem to be having a significant impact on risk sentiment. As of writing, Germany’s DAX 30 was up 0.63% on the day at 13,306.
