Month: January 2022

Dear students,

after the last two vaccination campaigns in December and January in the castle in Erlangen, the third campaign starts this week for the first time in Nuremberg.

For this, on Thursday, January 27th from 12:00 to 18:00 in the former Mensa Insel Schütt in Nuremberg (Andreij-Sacharow-Platz 1, 90403 Nuremberg) – 1000 vaccine doses with the BioNTech and 1000 doses of the Moderna vaccine are ready. Booster vaccinations will be given starting 3 months after the second vaccination. The vaccination campaign is aimed at students and employees of FAU. Registered participants* may bring up to 6 dependents each.

You can register here via StudOn.

By popular demand, this time we will also offer the special children’s vaccine from Pfizer-Biontech for the age group 5-12 years (limited contingent).

PS: Here is a video of our first vaccination campaign.

50 years ago, the “extremist resolution” was passed. The “Verfassungsschutz” was given the power to check all applicants and employees in the public sector for their “loyalty to the constitution”. This set a harassment machine for political activists into motion. Leftists of all kinds, trade unionists, members of the VVN-BdA, etc. were spied on by regular queries of their “loyalty to the constitution”. The result: 11,000 ban procedures, 1,256 application rejections, 265 dismissals.

Demonstration on 28.01. at 5 p.m. at Schlossplatz Erlangen

We demand: annulment of the resolution, rehabilitation of the victims and the dissolution of the Verfassungsschutz!

Global covid infections continue to skyrocket; a trend from which Germany is not exempt. Rest assured that the university’s covid crisis team continues to meet weekly to ensure the safety of our students and staff whilst maintaining face-to-face teaching and communication where possible. Given the current situation, regular teaching and examination formats are deemed safe under the premise that hygiene regulations and recommendations are adhered to. It is of utmost importance that absence in the case of mandatory attendance due to quarantine be excused to ensure just treatment of our pupils.

Students unable to fulfil 2G requirements are, as of the time of writing, permitted to present an antigen rapid test in lieu of a PCR test if necessary. The aforementioned is the fruit of a letter sent by the Student Parliament to the Bavarian state government concerning the limitations of the 2G / 3G + rules imposed by said Μinistry.
