STIKO recommends vaccination against COVID-19.
For the vaccination one of the two approved mRNA vaccines are used. A vaccination series that has already started should be completed with the same product. The safety and effectiveness of the two mRNA vaccines (Comirnaty from BioNTech / Pfizer, COVID-19 vaccine from Moderna) are judged to be equivalent.
