In Germany the tampon machine is organized down to the smallest detail: from 160 thousand a week last March, now about two million in the same time frame. The cameras of “Fourth Republic” I am at Berlin to show how the German model.
I family doctors they have studios on the ground floor, they are like small clinics and it is there that citizens go to swab. “It is important that primary care doctors do timely tests – explains a doctor – because if the result is positive I will I call every single patient, I explain to him what he must do and how long he must stay in isolation“.
“They immediately gave me an appointment for the same day – explains instead an italian living in Berlin who went to her GP – and after about two hours I took the test for the coronavirus“. But that’s not all because in addition to the general practitioners’ laboratories there are also centers set up throughout the Berlin area, they are called”Test site“and citizens can also go there to undergo tests.
The same organization was foreseen for ddistribution of the vaccine. They have already organized themselves in Germany and a plan has been drawn up in the city of Berlin six distribution points.
