Before the next wave of corona is expected in autumn, the country has launched its booking portal for vaccination appointments. Around 660 doctors and pharmacies have already registered, so that around 10,000 vaccination appointments per week are available, as Health Minister Manfred Lucha (Greens) announced on Monday in Stuttgart. “I appeal to the citizens: Use these opportunities.”
Only a few people are currently being vaccinated against the corona virus. But that could change if the number of infections increases in autumn, as feared. In addition, there will soon be new vaccines adapted to the omicron variant.
Fourth vaccination recommended from the age of 60
Lucha pointed out that the Federal Ministry of Health announced the delivery of the BA.4/BA.5 vaccines for this week. “In this way, appointments with these adapted vaccines can also be booked for booster vaccinations – as soon as they have arrived at the vaccinating offices.” That will probably be the case at the end of the week.
The Standing Vaccination Commission (Stiko) currently recommends another booster vaccination for people over 60, i.e. a fourth spade. A recommendation for the vaccines adapted to the omicron variant is awaited.
