all stadiums, and adapting on the current vaccines.
From the viral viewpoint this has no
sense – says into Martin Beer, head of Institute Diagnostics viruses at the federal institute.
Director of Institute Epidemiology at Friedrich Loeffler (FLI), Carola Sauter-Louis noted from the college, that vaccination also has been been reasonable as prevention only in the case of serious epidemic.
