According to our world in data, Italy has one of the highest shares of vaccinated right after Portugal, Iceland and Spain.
Nice to see we do something right for once.
That’s because they’re in Central Europe 😀
Ouch. As an Austrian I’m ashamed of my country
It’s like the skiing World Cup, but for dumb idiots.
How come portugal and iceland are winning so hard? 😀
22% unvaccinated
Must be nice …
Wanna trade?
>24% is considered very high
Eastern Europe: Those are rookie numbers!
Based Portugal. We’re currently at 14.6 unvaccinated in Brazil, there is still so much to be done.
Our idiots are very efficient and of the highest quality!
Probably sounds scarier in German.
One of the most surprising things I found out since moving here was how common place homeopathy is in Germany and that (I think most) public health insurance companies cover it.
Though I haven’t encountered any doctor who prescribed me such bullshit I’ll make sure not to visit them again if it ever happens.
This feels more like a distance to Atlantic effect.. which I simply can’t explain.
In Germany you can also see regional discrepancies. Like always the east is a bit weird and the least vaccinated part, but from all western states Bavaria has the lowest percentage.
Austria, Switzerland and Bavaria… something is up with the alps.
German here:
The Anti-Vaxx-Scene in germany is extremly radicalized. they ralley on demonstrations almost every weekend and radicalize themselfs with podcasts and fakenews, trapped in a bubble of fakenews. Alot of them are from a little older and just got recently into “smartphones and internet” and don’t know how to factcheck information.
Police is really fed up with the situation and goes pretty “hard”* on those protestors which further more rises tensions.
*hard=mace & watercanons
Spaniard from Mallorca here. Most of the German residents I know have no intention of vaccinating themselves nor their friends nor their families. Many in fact are counting on getting fake certificates from Germany.
Don’t know what’s with German people and vaccines but it’s ridiculous.
12+ when assessing vaccine hesitancy seems a tad unfair, some countries either aren’t vaccinating kids, or have only just decided to.
Well I’m not surprised when in Germany Homeopathy is widely promoted
I for long had the impression that us germans are just becoming more and more “Technophobic” and the way vaccines are treated here by so many people is just one more example.
We have to face it: Germany, the birth country of Albert Einstein, Werner Heisenberg, Otto Hahn, Wernher von Braun and Carl Benz, is becoming a country of scared technophobics.
As I said it is not just about the vaccine.
Nuclear power? “Please no! Not because it is not safe or because I care about the disposal of the radioactive waste… I just don’t really like it and my parents said Chernobyl was bad.”
5G infrastructure? “Stop building it, I think it gives me cancer.”
Renewable energies and the infrastructure to transport it? “Yes we need that, but only if it is built somewhere where I can’t see it when I leave my house once per month.”
Mobile payment? “I’m not stupid! If somebody steals my phone he can pay with it, I don’t want it to happen, I rather carry a thick wallet full of cash around, that is much saver!”

Id like to see a graph overlay with regular Facebook users.
It’s because we’re the most eastern of the western countries.
What’s impressive to me is the other end of the graphic: 1.5% unvaccinated only? Are those countries actually 98% reasonable people without any personal circumstances?
Esoterics, homeopathy and alternative medicine are pretty big in germany unfortunately, and I dont know how to fight it so that it doesnt feel ‘forced’. Health insurance no longer covering all that trash would be a start, and mass education
Hans, get the Impfwerfer!
What’s going on wirh Iceland and Portugal?! Are those countries virtually free from idiots or have they mandated that people take the vaccine?
Germany has an ENORMOUS amount of homeopathy enthusiasts and various other quacks. Not to mention that conspiracy theories are VERY popular here. It’s a fucking disgrace.

And additionally here in Munich we are [currently running out of vaccine doses](https://www.sueddeutsche.de/muenchen/muenchen-coronavirus-impfung-lieferengpass-1.5461803). :-/
