The corona numbers in the district are skyrocketing, and more and more Covid patients are being treated in the district clinic.
This development seems to increase the willingness to vaccinate significantly.
The vaccination center is significantly expanding its capacity.
Fürstenfeldbruck
- For a long time it was relatively quiet in the former discounter on Industriestrasse in Fürstenfeldbruck.
Because fewer and fewer people wanted to be protected against the corona virus, the vaccination center reduced its capacity.
Pandemic omnipresent again
This trend has now turned into the opposite.
The corona pandemic is omnipresent again.
The incidence is reaching new highs every day, the district clinic is full of Covid patients.
This dramatic development ensures that the demand for vaccinations in the center has increased significantly.
"The rush is gigantic," says the medical director, Dr.
Matthias Skrzypczak.
Last week there were 400 to 500 vaccinations per day, explains the doctor.
As a result, longer queues often formed in front of the center.
In order to prevent this from happening in the future, the district office, as the operator of the vaccination center, has switched back to making appointments for the vaccinations.
More young people
Most of the immunizations are booster vaccinations.
But the proportion of those who pick up their first prick has also increased.
Skrzypczak estimates it to be about a third of all those who want to be vaccinated.
Noticeable: There are more and more young people among the candidates for the first vaccination.
Looking for administrative staff
In order to be able to meet the increased demand, the capacities in the vaccination center are now being expanded.
“We hire new employees every day,” says Matthias Skrzypczak.
That's why there are always new, free appointments added.
We are also looking for people who want to work in the administration of the center.
Interested parties can send an email to impfzentrum@lra-ffb.de.
In general, the requirements of the Standing Vaccination Commission (Stiko) are followed with regard to the booster vaccination in the vaccination center.
In the end, however, the responsible vaccination doctor decides on the immunization.
Hotline often busy
In order to get an appointment, the District Office advises you to register again on the Internet at www.impfzentren.bayern.
The hotline is now often busy because of many calls.
Vaccinations are also used in many medical practices.
In order to maintain the supply of the population, the Medical District Association has now canceled its general meeting, as spokesman Dr.
Andreas Forster reports.
It is essential to avoid a corona outbreak among doctors.
"Because then we would have a huge problem."
