It s well before midday but chemical technician trainer Ralf Scharf is already heading to the company canteen. And lunch is the last thing on his mind.
He s here to get a Covid-19 jab, as his German employer Evonik Industries joins a push to ramp up the country s immunisation drive by including company doctors in the effort. You can get vaccinated without hardly any waiting time, it s great, Scharf, 58, told AFP after making the short walk from his work station to the dining area.

Evonik partners with BioNTech to manufacture lipids for COVID-19 vaccine
Caused by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic continues to spread across the globe. The rise to dominance of several new variants of concern, some with observed heightened transmissibility, has contributed to a resurgence in cases in many parts of the world – particularly in the U.S., the U.K., Brazil, and South Africa. To date, over 107 million cases of COVID-19 have been confirmed worldwide, with over 2.35 million deaths.
Since the virus was first detected in Wuhan, China, in December 2019, the global scientific community has been mounting an unprecedented research effort to better understand SARS-CoV-2 – from its transmission dynamics, to its complex mechanisms of infection, to its pathogenicity.
