The 26th RIVM vaccination update now shows vaccination turnout for people aged 25-44 years by municipality. This involves people who have received at least one COVID-19 vaccination.

Following an advisory report by the Health Council, Minister De Jonge decided on 6 July 2021, effective as of 16 July, that people who had received one vaccination with AstraZeneca could opt for the Pfizer/BioNTech for their second jab.

The RIVM vaccination update this week has been expanded to include vaccination coverage by municipality, specifying full COVID-19 vaccination among people aged 65 and over and people aged 45-64 years.

As of today,  teens born before 1 July 2009 can make an appointment for COVID-19 vaccination by the Municipal Public Health Services (GGDs).

More than 95% of the 1,741 participants in RIVM’s LongCOVID study, who reported long-term symptoms after COVID-19, had mild symptoms during the acute phase of the infection.

In 2020, the year of the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, resistant bacteria were not found more often in patients in the Netherlands than before the outbreak.

As of today, the first teens born in 2007 can make an appointment for COVID-19 vaccination by the Municipal Public Health Services (GGDs).
