The German pension fund was still facing a deficit of 6.5 billion euros as recently as 2019! Now, however, less than two years since Covid vaccinations began, the same pension scheme has informed the German Press Agency that, due to the high #mortality rate, it expects a surplus of 2.1 billion euros.
These facts were brought to light by Manager Magazin on 28 December 2022, under the headline, and I quote: “Full coffers! Higher mortality helps pension scheme achieve a surplus in the billions.” This means that, within just two years of the start of the vaccination programme, pension expenditure has fallen by 8.6 billion euros in Germany alone. “Revenue has risen and expenditure has fallen as a result of higher mortality,” explains DRV President Roßbach.
