The medical practices in Hamburg could soon see another rush of those willing to be vaccinated. The reason is that the vaccine from Johnson & Johnson will be used there from the end of May.
The vaccine could be of particular interest to Hamburg residents who want to go on vacation soon. Because it is so far the only remedy against the coronavirus where only one vaccination is enough for full immunity. With the other vaccines you have to get a second vaccination. So it takes at least a month for complete protection.

Same recommendation as with AstraZeneca
The same recommendation from the Standing Vaccination Commission applies to Johnson & Johnson as to AstraZeneca. He should only be vaccinated from the age of 60. However, it can also be given to younger people after the doctor has informed them accordingly. The practices can order it in the coming week for the end of May, and in large quantities.
Hardly any biontech for doctors’ practices in Hamburg
In contrast, the vaccine from Biontech / Pfizer for medical practices remains relatively sparse. Even in the week after Whitsun, a maximum of twelve first vaccinations per practice are possible, the Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians announced in its current circular to the doctors.
