The third Covid vaccination is now possible in Tyrol just four months after the second vaccination. This was announced by Governor Günther Platter and Regional Health Councilor Annette Leja (ÖVP) on Wednesday.
Appointments for a third vaccination can now be booked via www.tirolimpft.at 120 days after the second vaccination. “As a precaution, many Tyroleans want to have their third vaccination early in order to be protected as best as possible. As in other countries, we have also decided in Tyrol to implement this third vaccination method with immediate effect, ”said Platter. The so-called 3rd prick is intended for people over the age of 18. “In addition, children and adolescents from 12 years of age who belong to a risk group, for example, can be vaccinated a third time,” said a broadcast from the country. An interval of 120 days Basically, an interval of at least 120 days for a second vaccination must be observed the third vaccination is registered as such in the Green Passport. People who have been vaccinated once with Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) “should have their second vaccination as soon as possible (no earlier than 28 days after the first vaccination), preferably with mRNA vaccines.” It is therefore important to remind your body of the antibodies again and to supplement the current vaccination schedule with the third vaccination – within this period, the following applies: the earlier the better, “said Health Councilor Leja.
