The vaccination is also safe for peopel with reduced resistance. You do not need to consult your healthcare professional before you receive the vaccination.

Will the vaccination work for me as a patient? uitklapper, klik om te openen

The vaccination may not work as well because of the underlying disease or treatment. But that does not mean that the vaccination will be delayed. The chance of a coronavirus infection is high at the moment. In addition, corona contamination can be more serious in patients with reduced resistance. The risk of possible side effects of the vaccination also does not outweigh the risk of infection with coronavirus.

I've had a vaccination. Do I still have to comply with the measures? uitklapper, klik om te openen

Have you had a vaccination? Then it is important that you still follow all measures taken by the national government, such as keeping a distance of 1.5 meters and wearing a mouth mask. We do not know how well the vaccination works yet.

Do housemates of patients with reduced resistance get priority over a vaccination? uitklapper, klik om te openen

Housemates of patients with reduced resistance are currently not given priority vaccination.
