Translated excerpt from the commentary „Impf-Debatte im Sport - Gefährlicher Egoismus“ ("Vaccination debate in sports - dangerous egoism") by Christoph Becker:
„But there are noteworthy counter-opinions. The renowned sports lawyer Rainer Cherkeh sees the league associations in the duty, already from care towards the sportsmen. He considers the implementation of compulsory vaccination to be permissible and necessary. His argument: the autonomy of the associations guaranteed in the Basic Law, otherwise often the favorite of the associations when it comes to protecting privileges.“
