Update from 10 August 2021
The Bochum vaccination centre will again offer vaccinations without appointment in the University Forum (UFO) on 26 and 27 August 2021 from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m. People who have received their first dose in the UFO at the end of July, will have the possibility to receive their second dose then.
People who have not yet been vaccinated at all against Covid 19 are also welcome. They can receive their first dose in the UFO at the end of August. For the second dose, however, those people will have to refer to another vaccination location, for instance, the vaccination centre in the Ruhrcongress.

The UFO building is the former “Kirchenforum” (church centre) in the Unicenter Querenburg (address: Querenburger Höhe 294, 44801 Bochum). Since the beginning of May, a Corona test station is situated in that building, too. It is located close to the U35 train station “Ruhr-Universität Bochum”. You can find the UFO building at the top of the RUB map.
If you would prefer to make an appointment for your vaccination, you can do so at the vaccination centre Bochum (Impfzentrum Bochum). Appointments can be booked online at www.116117.de or via the website of the Westphalia-Lippe Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians (Kassenärztliche Vereinigung Westfalen-Lippe).
On the website of the vaccination centre Bochum, you will find further vaccination offers without appointment on additional dates and in additional locations.
