When will I finally get a vaccination appointment?
The Corona vaccination appointment calculator should now answer this question and after a few steps it shows when you are likely to receive an appointment.
Vaccinations
against the
corona
virus have been
in
Germany
since the end of December
.
In some federal states, the
vaccination appointments
available up to now are
already booked out.
To date, too few
vaccine doses are
available.
A
corona vaccination
calculator now calculates a possible vaccination date for anyone who would like to be vaccinated.
Since the end of December,
vaccinations
against the
corona
virus have
also been in place in Germany *
.
While some do not
want to be
vaccinated
under any circumstances
, the others are already looking forward to an early vaccination appointment *.
Because the hope that the pandemic will slowly come to an end * and that we will finally get our normal everyday life back is great.
However, in many vaccination centers that are already
vaccinations
for months booked.
As
echo24.de *
already reported, Federal Health
Minister
Spahn has assured * that everyone who
wants to
be
vaccinated
will also receive a
vaccination
this year
.
But when exactly?
The
Corona vaccination calculator
offers an initial answer
.
How does the Corona vaccination appointment calculator work?
In itself, the
corona vaccination appointment calculator works
very easily.
To do this, the website www.omnicalculator.com/health/impfterminrechner must first be called up.
Then there are some fields that have to be filled out.
With the answers, the
Corona vaccination appointment calculator
categorizes
which priority level of the vaccination plan in Germany * a person falls into and therefore also when he
or she will receive
an
appointment based
on the current availability of vaccination doses *
.
However, no personal information is required, the evaluation is anonymous.
According to the federal government, there are four groups in the current vaccination plan:
Group with "highest priority":
all over 80 year olds, residents and staff of nursing homes, employees of outpatient care services, staff in intensive care units, in emergency rooms and in the ambulance service belong to this first group who can receive the corona vaccination first if they want.
“High priority” group:
People over 70 years of age, people with trisomy 21, people with dementia, transplant patients, residents of homeless or asylum seekers accommodation and close contact persons for care-dependent and pregnant women as well as riot police.
The
third group
includes people over the age of 60, people with certain chronic diseases, employees of the police, fire brigade, people in particularly relevant positions in government institutions as well as educators, teachers and employees in retail.
The
fourth group
includes everyone else who would like to be vaccinated.
First of all, the
age is
indicated and whether there are precarious working and / or living conditions.
Then information about the
profession is given
.
Among other things, it is asked whether the job is carried out in a
medical institution
, whether there is professional contact with
risk patients
or in general with many people, such as a teacher, or whether one works in a
state institution
.
The next question asked is whether you are a resident of a
care facility
or communal
accommodation
or
whether you work
there.
Further aspects are whether there is contact with risk patients and pregnant women and whether
there are
previous illnesses
.
Corona vaccination date calculator: Results according to the federal government's current vaccination plan
Finally, the current vaccination plan * can be set, according to the
vaccination rate
, the period in which the vaccination takes place and what percentage of the German population
want to be
vaccinated
at all
.
According to the
developer Bogna Szyk,
this information
does not have to be set by herself, as she told
echo24.de
: “This default setting is the latest forecast by the federal government.
The vaccination
date calculator is updated
every working day with the number of
vaccinations carried out so far
according to the
Robert Koch Institute
.
The vaccination readiness * and the
vaccination rate
will be
updated
according to the official information from the
federal government
. "
Why is the vaccination plan variably adjustable?
The
graduate engineer Bogna Szyk
says: “Although we created our tool on the basis of official information, we want the user to be able to run through various scenarios.
What could happen if the government secures more vaccines * and doubles that rate?
What if we continued with the same
vaccination rate
as in early January? "
The Corona vaccination date calculator: When will I be vaccinated?
Those who only indicate a young age automatically slip into the
last priority level
.
The period that comes out of this is very broad - the author's personal result shows: “Based on your personal profile, there are from 19,476,125 to 38,334,545 people across Germany in the
queue
for a
COVID vaccination
.
With a vaccination rate of 670,000 per week and a
vaccination readiness
of 54 percent, you can expect
to receive
your first
vaccination dose
from 07/08/2021 to 20/02/2022.
The z
-wide vaccination dose
and it should be from 28/08/2021 to 13/03/2022. "About the corona vaccination appointment computer reported mannheim24.de *.
"As of today, we have 840,000 people vaccinated in Germany," said @jensspahn.
Almost 40% of #vaccination doses were given to nursing home residents.

Why is this period so long?
Ms.
Szyk
says: “Based on the
group size estimated
by the
Robert Koch Institute
, we know how many people are in the
queue in
front of you.
Dividing this number by the
vaccination rate
gives the
estimated waiting time
.
Of course, each of the
four priority groups is
quite large.
We cannot know exactly what place you will get in this group as everyone in a group has the same priority.
Hence the long period.
Of course we all hope that
Federal Minister of Health Spahn is
right and that the number of available
vaccinations
and thus the
vaccination rate will increase
in the course of this year.
As soon as this happens, we will adjust our numbers. "
In general, the
developer of
the
corona vaccination
calculator
would like
to point out that the
calculation is
only an estimate.
“It is impossible
to guarantee
the exact
date
because the situation changes daily.
But we try to ensure that the tool is always
up to date
and the information is as accurate as possible. "
Who is behind the Corona vaccination date calculator?
The
Corona vaccination calculator
was developed by the
graduate engineer Bogna Szyk
, a graduate of the Technical University of Vienna, and her colleague Philip Maus from the University of Pisa.
The
vaccination
calculator was
developed
in cooperation with the start-up
Omni Calculator
.
Omni Calculator was founded in Berlin as part of the Axel Springer Plug and Play Accelerator Program.
The start-up is supervised by 30 international scientists.
The
corona vaccination date calculator
is not an offer by the federal government.
