The situation in Esbjerg Municipality

COVID-19 is no longer categorized as a socially critical disease, and therefore all restrictions have been discontinued.

Coronavirus is still present in society, this also applies to Esbjerg Municipality.

Cough and sneeze into you sleeve

Vaccination

Where can I get vaccinated?

If you are over 18 years of age, have not previously been vaccinated against covid-19 (1st-3rd shot), and you have received an invitation for vaccination, you can get vaccinated at the Region Syddanmark vaccination center at Ørnevej 6 in Esbjerg. The center is open on Mondays on even weeks at 08:15 - 12:00. Book an appointment at www.vacciner.dk or by phone 99 44 07 17 (press 1). You can also show up without making an appointment in advance.

In very special situations, it will also still be possible to get an extra booster vaccination against covid-19 if your doctor deems it relevant for you. This applies to few people only, e.g. people who have had an organ or bone marrow transplant.
