Healthy through the winter!

As part of its University Health Management (UGM), the University of Erfurt is once again coordinating a Corona protection vaccination offer for its students and employees. Interested parties have the opportunity to be vaccinated (booster vaccinations with mRNA vaccines) by a mobile vaccination team of the "Kassenärztliche Vereinigung Thüringen" on November 3 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Audimax building (room in front of the wardrobe).

Please check in advance which vaccination is recommended in your case and send your appointment request, stating the need for vaccination, by e-mail to: gesundheit@uni-erfurt.de.

By the way...

Flu shots are also available on campus again this year. This vaccination event will take place on November 09 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the First Aid Room of the University Library (access via the staff entrance) and will be offered by the family practice of Dr Winkler from Jena. Booster vaccinations against tetanus and ticks (FSME) are also available upon request. To coordinate an appointment, please send an email to gesundheit@uni-erfurt.de.

Because a different vaccine is used for people older than 60 years than for younger people, we may ask for information.
