Proof of adequate measles protection as part of the internships

Dear students,

Please note that since 1 March 2020 the new „Gesetz für den Schutz vor Masern und zur Stärkung der Impfprävention“ (Measles Protection Act) is in force. With this new obligation to provide proof of measles protection, legislators want to effectively improve protection against the transmission of measles in institutions such as nurseries or schools. This means that you must take the appropriate protection as part of the internships at the schools („Proof of two measles vaccinations“ or „A medical certificate confirming immunity to measles, meaning that proof of vaccination is not required“ or „A medical certificate confirming immunity to measles, meaning that proof of vaccination is not required“ or „A medical certificate stating a permanent medical contraindication on the basis of which a measles vaccination must not be administered“). Your protection will be checked by the internship school. If this protection is not guaranteed, you will not be able to complete the internship.
I therefore urge you to take care of the relevant proof in advance and bring it with you when you start your internship.
