Only every second person still has a valid Covid vaccination protection

According to the state of Upper Austria, 5570 people in Upper Austria are currently demonstrably infected with the corona virus. 293 new infections were reported yesterday by the crisis team.

However, the number of people who still have a valid vaccination against Covid is also declining. According to the state’s crisis management team, only 51.7 percent of Upper Austria’s resident population still falls into this category. Above all, the opportunity to have the vaccination refreshed is hardly used. Only 243,024 people in Upper Austria have so far taken the opportunity for a fourth stitch. For comparison: the first and second corona vaccinations were administered to more than a million compatriots.

Younger people in particular appear to have little interest in vaccination: while well over 80 percent of those over 70 are currently vaccinated, only around 45 percent of 20 to 40 year olds are.

Registration for new vaccine

Since November 30, those interested in the vaccine VidPrevtyn Beta from the manufacturer Sanofi can register at corona.ooe.gv.at bookmark This is recommended by the National Vaccination Panel for people aged 18 and over as a third vaccination after two vaccinations with vector or mRNA vaccines and as a booster.

Since Friday, December 16, the vaccine Nuvaxovid (Novavax) has also been available again in the state vaccination centers.
