Users whose last vaccination was almost a year ago currently receive a warning in the CovPass or Corona-Warn app that their Corona vaccination certificate is no longer valid
Do you have to be vaccinated against Corona again?
no The app only shows that the technical validity of the vaccination certificate expires after one year.
The current recommendation of the STIKO is that only groups of people who are particularly at risk of health or who are exposed should receive a 2nd booster vaccination with an mRNA vaccine after completion of the basic immunization and 1st booster vaccination. Accordingly, the following groups of people should receive a 2nd booster vaccination:
- people over 70 years of age
- Residents and people being cared for in care facilities as well as people at risk of a severe course of illness in integration assistance facilities
- People with immunodeficiency from the age of 5 years
- Work in medical and nursing facilities (especially in direct contact with patients and residents).
