The rush to the vaccination campaign at the Ebersberger Volksfestplatz on Saturday was huge at the beginning.

Around 3,000 people aged 18 and over received the Astrazeneca vaccine regardless of their age and prioritization.

  • The rush for the vaccination campaign on Saturday, May 15, at the Ebersberger Volksfestplatz was enormous.

  • Around 3,000 people were vaccinated.

  • The vaccination teams were on duty until 9:30 p.m.

Sunday, May 16, 9.45 a.m .:

The vaccination campaign on Saturday in Ebersberg was a huge success. Around 3,000 people received the vaccine from Astrazeneca. The vaccination was carried out until 9:30 p.m., as the organizer Marc Block said. It was supposed to end at 8 p.m., but at that time there were still around 150 people who wanted to be vaccinated in front of the Ebersberger Volksfesthallte. Block thanked the army of volunteers from the fire brigade, BRK and other organizations, without whom the action would not have been possible.

Update 6:07 p.m.: Those

who want to be vaccinated are still queuing up in Ebersberg.

"We're not running out of vaccines," said Brigitte Keller, head of the crisis team, renewing her promise.

The initiators ask, however, not to queue after 7.30 p.m. - the planned end of the vaccination campaign is 8 p.m.

Update 5:03 p.m.:

The news of snakes that are getting shorter has apparently got around - meanwhile more people have come to Ebersberg again.

The waiting time at both the vaccination center and the Volksfestplatz should be a good one and a half hours.

Firefighters guide those willing to vaccinate to where the less is going on at the moment.

Update 2:21 p.m.:

The rush to the Ebersberg vaccination campaign seems to be subsiding.

As the vaccination center announced, there is currently

no waiting time for the vaccination.

The campaign continues until 8 p.m., spontaneous people can be vaccinated without registering or providing proof of prioritization.

Enough vaccine is available.

Update, 12.12 p.m.:

It is becoming apparent that the vaccination campaign in Ebersberg will be a remarkable success: General practitioners and the district office were able to provide a total of almost 4000 Astrazeneca doses.

At the same time, the queues are getting shorter, our reporter on site now estimates the waiting time to be less than an hour.

Enough vaccine for spontaneous people - vaccinations are carried out until 8 p.m.

In the meantime, enough vaccine is available, says Brigitte Keller, head of the crisis team.

“Spontaneous people can come!” She

emphasizes.

After all, it would be a shame if the vaccine was left over.

“The queue is finite,” promises Keller.

Medical coordinator with an urgent request - mass second vaccination planned

Doctor coordinator Marc Block, initiator and organizer of the mass vaccination, urges the vaccinees to unsubscribe from the online registration of the vaccination center and from the waiting list at the family doctor after a successful injection.

"There are a

lot of people in the files,

" he says.

Young people in particular would find their way to Ebersberg this Saturday, probably also with a view to their summer vacation.

The second vaccination can be given by the family doctor, but at the same time, according to Block, a

mass second vaccination is

planned for July 10th.

Mayor speaks of "great success"

The doctor thanks his medical colleagues, many of them retirees, who were enthusiastic about the campaign and are now helping.

“The solidarity is enormous,” says Block.

And Ebersberg's non-party mayor Uli Proske calls the action a “great success”.

He says: "Ebersberg sets an example and shows what cooperation can achieve."

Update, 11.18 a.m.:

As was found on site, those willing to vaccinate even stayed near the festival site - city officials even spotted caravans with license plates from North Rhine-Westphalia.

In principle, everyone can be vaccinated during the corona vaccination campaign in Ebersberg today, even people who do not have a place of residence in the district.

The doctors vaccinate continuously until 8 p.m., then the campaign ends.

The district office reports that they have "the situation under control".

Fortunately for the people in the queues in front of the Volksfesthalle and the vaccination center, the sun is shining over Ebersberg.

Update, 10.15 a.m.:

To counter the rush to the public Ebersberger Corona vaccination campaign, the vaccination center is now jumping into the breach: In addition to ten doctor's rooms at the Volksfestplatz, twelve additional vaccination stations are now available at the Sparkassenplatz.

They also inoculate Astrazeneca's corona vaccine without prioritization and registration.

This confirms the vaccination center and district office.

It is also a special quota.

Since the Ebersberger campaign was already expected to attract a great deal of interest, additional capacities were created in the underground car park of the former savings bank building in collaboration with the THW - in addition to the regular operation of the vaccination center - and additional teams of doctors were deployed.

This "reserve" is now used.

First report from May 15, 10 a.m.

Ebersberg

- The end of the queue can hardly be found anymore.

Those willing to vaccinate are currently running over the Ebersberger Volksfestplatz to get a syringe of the corona vaccine from Astrazeneca.

Some have apparently spent the night on site, many have been in line long before sunrise.

Observers assume that at least 1,000 people are already there.

Traffic chaos and giant queues

"We are not running out of vaccine," says Brigitte Keller from the district office.

Initially, 1000 vaccine doses were in discussion, but there are still supplies from the vaccination center.

The head of the crisis team, however, has two requests for people: come later in the day - and don't drive into the city center.

Because with the rush of vaccinations, the fire brigade reports a traffic chaos.

In a joint campaign, the Ebersberg family doctors around the medical coordinator Marc Block vaccinate Astrazeneca vaccine without prioritization and registration - anyone can come and queue.

The interest in the run-up to the event was correspondingly high.

As early as 8 a.m., the fairground was full of people who wanted to be vaccinated.

Long queues are now also forming at the vaccination center, fire brigade and police regulate the rush.
