Basel-Stadt

The cantonal corona vaccination center Basel-Stadt at Messeplatz will close on Friday, March 10, 2023. After that date, Covid-19 vaccinations will continue to be offered by medical practices, pharmacies, and the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute (Swiss TPH).

The temporarily increased demand for vaccinations with the adapted booster vaccine as part of the autumn/winter vaccination campaign has declined in recent weeks. Currently, vaccinations are still given on one full and two half days of the week (all day Wednesdays, Thursday afternoons, and Friday mornings (https://www.coronaimpfzentrumbasel.ch/).  Until the closure on March 10, 2023, interested parties are still invited to be vaccinated at the vaccination center or to have a booster vaccination given to protect themselves against a severe course of Covid disease.

A weekly updated overview of the vaccination options with opening hours can be found at https://www.coronavirus.bs.ch/Impfen/liste-der-impfstellen-im-kanton-basel-stadt.html.

The health department is currently developing plans to ensure a longer-term basic range of Covid-19 vaccination options in Basel-Stadt beyond the closure of the vaccination center at Messeplatz.
