Which corona rules are now in effect in hamburg? The big overview

Vaccination status: when am I considered fully vaccinated or recovered??

Previously, a double mrna vaccination with moderna, biontech and astrazeneca vaccines was considered complete vaccine protection. With the introduction of booster vaccination, this definition has changed. Health Minister karl lauterbach (SPD) explained in an interview with bams: "a complete vaccination consists of three doses." this means that only boosted individuals are now considered fully protected. according to the robert Koch institute (RKI), persons who have received two doses of vaccine have a so-called basic immunization.

The great exception johnson& johnson is no longer an exception as a result of the new rules. Previously, people who had received one dose of the vaccine were considered fully vaccinated, with a further dose of vaccine by moderna or biontech they were considered boosted. This has changed, because now you also need to put the johnson& johnson vaccine double dose mrna. For people who have previously received a cross-vaccination consisting of a J&J vaccination and an mrna vaccination, this means that they are now no longer considered boostered, but only basic immunized, and therefore require a further vaccination dose.

Who is considered a booster in hamburg?

people with three mrna vaccine doses (z.B. Biontech, moderna)
