The head of the virology department, Sharito, suggests that immunity in Germany will be stable after the winter.. At the same time, he defends the coronavirus measures.

Christian Drosten, head of the virology department at the Charite Clinic in Berlin, considers the coronavirus pandemic in Germany to be over. "

After this winter, the immunity of the population will be so strong that in the summer the virus is unlikely to be able to pass.. The only limitation that the virologist called was another mutational jump. "

Regarding the situation in China, where the coronavirus is now massively spreading after the abandonment of the “zero Covid” policy, Drosten said: “The big mistake in China was that there was no awareness of vaccination among the population, especially among the elderly.. In his opinion, the vaccination campaign in Germany and Europe was a decisive step in the fight against the pandemic..

If nothing had been done, then in Germany there would have been a million deaths or more on the waves to the Delta.. That's why I had to limit contacts..

The virologist defended measures to contain the virus: “It was never about stopping the pandemic, it was initially clear that this was impossible.. But if nothing had been done, then in Germany there would have been a million deaths or more on the waves to the Delta.. So you had to cut contact."
