According to presumably incorrectly issued vaccination certificates from a family doctor's practice in the Donau-Ries district, many of those affected do not have adequate vaccination protection.
Almost 300 people have so far had themselves tested for Covid-19 antibodies, and about two thirds of them had negative tests, the district office in Donauwörth announced on Thursday.
Donauwörth - The authority also recommend all those affected with antibodies to be vaccinated against Corona again.
The tests alone cannot be used to say for sure how often vaccinations have been given.
According to the definition of the Robert Koch Institute, with another vaccination, those affected would also be considered fully vaccinated.
