UPDATE 26.8.2021

The Ständige Impfkommission (STIKO) updated its previous assessment on Aug. 16, 2021, and issued a general COVID-19 vaccination recommendation for 12- to 17-year-olds. “In view of the STIKO recommendation, we will therefore keep the vaccination station open into September to offer employees and residents* the vaccination of their children and adolescents from the age of 12,” said Dr. Jörg Busam, Head Company Physician at Beiersdorf AG. Consultation and, if necessary, vaccination will be carried out by doctors with extensive experience in pediatrics and adolescent medicine at Beiersdorf’s vaccination station in cooperation with the German Red Cross (DRK). The vaccine is supplied by BioNTech/Pfizer. It remains an individual and voluntary decision to accept the vaccination offer. The decision for or against vaccination should be made by the parents or guardians together with the children or adolescents. The Beiersdorf vaccination center is located at Quickbornstrasse 24 and will remain open until September.  

Information on the possibility of vaccinations for kids and teens
On Aug. 16, 2021, the Standing Committee on Vaccination (STIKO) updated its previous assessment on and issued a general COVID-19 vaccination recommendation for 12- to 17-year-olds.

At Beiersdorf, therefore, kids and teens (12 years and older) can also be vaccinated. “Decide in families, as parents together with your young people, whether vaccination is an option and obtain as much information as possible before booking the appointment,” recommends Beiersdorf AG’s Head Company Physician, Dr. Jörg Busam. “At the vaccination station, we also offer a medical educational talk, where possible open questions can be discussed. However, families should please make the basic decision for the Corona vaccination together before the appointment.”

Please note when vaccinating children and teens:
All responsible custodians must consent to the vaccination. A responsible custodial person must always be present at the vaccination appointment. No vaccination can be given without a custodial person accompanying the child. 

With immediate effect, people who live near the Hamburg company can also be vaccinated against COVID-19 at Beiersdorf’s vaccination station at Quickbornstraße 24. Since the opening of the vaccination station on June 8, 2021, the company medical service in cooperation with the German Red Cross Hamburg-Eimsbüttel has already administered more than 3,800 vaccinations and is offering up to 200 vaccination appointments per day for first and/or second vaccinations until the end of August 2021, depending on demand. 

“As already announced at the vaccination launch, we are now also making a vaccination offer to the people of Eimsbüttel,” says the head company physician Dr. Jörg Busam. “With this, we want to further support the nationwide vaccination campaign #aermelhoch. An offer that will hopefully also help to increase the vaccination rate in the city in view of the new school year and the rising infection figures again,” Busam explains.

Anyone interested in receiving a first and/or second vaccination at the Beiersdorf Vaccination Center should contact them directly (see below). “The team will get back to you promptly with a proposed appointment,” Busam promises. “There are often postponements or cancellations of appointments, so we can always offer free appointments at short notice, often on the same day, in order to be able to vaccinate as many prepared vaccine doses as possible,” Busam explains the procedure, adding, “However, if demand remains high, ‘neighborhood vaccination days’ are also conceivable.”

At the Beiersdorf vaccination station, all people living in Eimsbüttel who are 12 years of age or older can be vaccinated. For more information on the possibility of vaccinating kids and teens, see the info box below. The vaccine is provided by BioNTech/Pfizer.

Then please send an e-mail to impfstation@beiersdorf.com. Please include your full name (first and last name) as well as your telephone number where you can best be reached during the day. Ideally, you should indicate possible time slots for vaccination and write how soon you can come to the vaccination station on the respective days for vaccination. Vaccination without an appointment is not possible at this time.
