German Health Minister Jens Spahn warned on Monday that "by the end of winter, everyone will probably have either been vaccinated, recovered or died." He called on all Germans to get inoculated and receive boosters, asserting there is "enough vaccine for all upcoming vaccinations" and that both the Pfizer and Moderna shots available in the country are efficient against COVID-19, APA reports citing Teletrader.

Speaking at a press conference, Spahn said six million Pfizer doses are being delivered from warehouses, with two to three million more arriving in the following weeks. He added he expects 24 million doses to be available by the end of the year, in addition to 26 million shots made by Moderna.
