Long night of vaccination: Now register for flu and corona protection!
On October 8, 2025, the third nationwide "Long Night of Vaccination" will take place. This special evening aims to increase the attention of vaccinations in Germany and increase vaccination rates. On this day, pharmacies, medical practices and company doctors will offer vaccinations until late in the evening, including against flu and covid-19. District Mayor Martin Schaefer (CDU) emphasizes the importance of vaccination offers close to home after work.
Dr. Catrin Gocksch (CDU), district councilor for health, emphasizes the increased risk of flu and corona in autumn, which underlines the need for vaccinations. Anke Rüdiger from the Castello-Apotheke Fennpfuhl also indicates the importance of these vaccinations in October. The possibility of being vaccinated in pharmacies offers citizens a low -threshold, flexible access to the required vaccinations.
Vaccination rate and monitoring in Germany
The Robert Koch Institute (RKI) plays a central role in the recording and publication of data on the vaccination status of the population in Germany. There are two legally anchored columns for a nationwide vaccination quota monitoring: on the one hand, the collection of vaccination status data for school examinations since 2001, and on the other hand, the collection of billed vaccination services of statutory health insurance associations (Kven) since March 2020. In addition, long-term studies and surveys such as Kiggs and DEGS provide additional representative data.
Vaccination quotas in childhood in Germany are very high and are supplemented by special monitoring for COVID-19 vaccination, which was set up during pandemic. It is particularly noteworthy that the vaccination rates for long -established vaccinations, such as diphtheria and tetanus, are over 90 percent, while recent vaccinations such as chickenpox and pneumococci reach between 80 and 90 percent. Nevertheless, there are challenges: For some vaccinations, such as measles, mumps and rubella, the odds in small children are often inadequate.
Interactive platform: VacMap
In order to further analyze the situation of the vaccination rates, the RKI offers the dashboard "VacMap", which clearly shows the results of the KV vaccination survey in Germany. The platform is aimed at players in vaccination prevention and enables easy evaluation of implementing the vaccination recommendations. By analyzing vaccinations in different regions and age groups, targeted measures to increase the vaccination rates can be developed.
In addition, an explanatory film is available that explains the use of VACMAP and thus paving the way to a better understanding of the vaccination situation in Germany. Comprehensive data enables the needs to be addressed in a targeted manner in the population. On October 8th, the focus is on vaccination offers, but the ongoing analysis and improvement of the vaccination rates remains a constant responsibility for the health authorities.
