aI am ill. Can I still get vaccinated?

This will be decided by the doctor on site. If you are running a high fever, you should postpone your vaccination.

aI would like to get vaccinated but am afraid of side effects.

For every vaccination, information about potential side effects is available.

aHow long does a vaccination appointment take?

This is hard to say. Please be on time for your appointment and take all required documents with you: e-card, photo ID, Certificate of Vaccination, vaccination titre tests (if available); if you plan a trip, also bring information about the travel itinerary. Before the vaccination, you need to fill in a questionnaire on site; please also budget sufficient time for this (10 minutes are recommended).

aWhen exactly do I have to arrive for my vaccination appointment?

Please try to be there 10 minutes before your appointment to leave enough time to fill in the vaccination questionnaire.

aHow about physical exertion and exercise after a vaccination?

Avoid physical exertion on the day of vaccination. After the vaccination, also avoid intensive sports activities (competitive sports, intensive endurance training), sauna use as well as anything that puts massive strain on the body for 1 week.

However, children and young people may participate in gym lessons at school and adults may engage in moderate sports activities.
