Abstract

After prioritization of populations with risk factors for severe courses of Covid-19 (Corona) and occupational groups with a high number of close contacts with patients and other human beings, from now onward (performance-oriented) athletes will be considered for vaccination. Recommendations for vaccinations in this target group can be different from the ones for the general population in some aspects. However, there are only very few scientifically valid findings that may guide vaccinating medical doctors. This article summarizes available evidence and formulates recommendations for vaccinations in (high-performance) athletes.Key Words: Corona-Pandemics, COVID-19, Risk Factors, Priorization, General Population
