Update from December 10th, 12.45 p.m.: The Catholic and Evangelical Churches in Bavaria are calling for corona vaccination – and want to make their own rooms available for vaccination campaigns. “Churches and community halls are central places that many people in the Free State are familiar with.” Health Minister Klaus Holetschek said on Friday in Munich. The churches also have “special access to the people” and can “enter into conversation with those who doubt or hesitate”.
According to the ministry, the Protestant regional bishop Heinrich Bedford-Strohm asked in a letter to check in all 1540 regional parishes whether they could offer vaccination centers on site or volunteer help. In this way, the church could make its contribution “to this huge effort,” said Bedford-Strohm accordingly.
According to the head of the Bavarian Catholic Office, Lorenz Wolf, all Bavarian dioceses also support efforts to “make it easier for people of all ages to have access to vaccinations”. Occasionally there had been vaccination campaigns in church parishes since the summer.

Incidence in Bavaria has fallen – no more hotspots over 1000
In the meantime, no district or urban district in the Free State is more than the incidence mark of 1000, from which stricter corona measures are currently in force. The RKI reported 115 other corona-related deaths in Bavaria. In total there were now 18,425. The districts with the highest incidence values are currently Freyung-Grafenau (930.4) and Passau (788.3).
Corona numbers in Bavaria are falling – but experts with an important objection
When evaluating the infection rate, however, it should be borne in mind that experts are currently assuming a noticeable underreporting. Health authorities and clinics can no longer keep up with reporting cases, at least in individual regions.
