Boost your immunity: Neudörfl residents encouraged to get vaccinated
As the threat of the coronavirus still looms, the question of who should get vaccinated to protect themselves against the virus has been clarified. Dr. Martin Schmitzhofer, a respected physician in Neudörfl, has provided a comprehensive list of individuals who are recommended to get a booster vaccination. This includes patients with lung disease, cancer, immune deficiencies, diabetes, heart or kidney disease, individuals over 60 years of age, pregnant women, the severely overweight, those with neurological and psychiatric diseases, and healthcare workers.
The Federal Ministry of Health has issued recommendations for the upcoming autumn and winter of 2023, indicating the urgency for booster vaccinations, especially for high-risk individuals. It is assumed that nearly everyone in Austria has had contact with the virus, making vaccination crucial in reducing the risk of becoming seriously ill with COVID-19 and lowering the chance of long-term consequences of the disease.
In an effort to encourage vaccination, a vaccination day is scheduled for November 23rd in the Bors Villa. The vaccination team, composed of Dr. Martin Schmitzhofer, Dr. Elisabeth Seedoch, and Mag. Carmen Tamandl, will be present to address any concerns or questions the public may have. The latest vaccine from BioNTech/Pfizer, highly effective against the Omicron variant, will be administered during the event. For individuals at risk, vaccination is possible four months after exposure.
Dr. Schmitzhofer emphasized the importance of taking precautions and not underestimating the severity of the virus. The vaccination day, initiated in cooperation with local authorities and the Passage Pharmacy, serves as a reminder to the community to remain vigilant. The event aims to generate attention and mindfulness, particularly as there is a lack of information about COVID-19 in the media.
Residents of Neudörfl are encouraged to register in advance for the vaccination day at the municipal office and to bring their e-card, vaccination certificate, and photo ID with them.

With the threat of the virus still prevalent, getting vaccinated remains an effective way to protect oneself and others.]
