In the fall of 2023, more than 2,731,000 people received the coronavirus vaccine. For those over 60 the vaccination rate is 50.5% This was reported by the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM).
Vaccination rates vary by age group and region. The corona vaccine was available until December 22, 2023 and was recommended for people aged 60 and over, people aged 18 and over who are eligible for the flu vaccine, other children and adults with serious conditions that put them at risk of severe COVID-19 healthcare workers in contact with patients and/or clients and pregnant women.

Corona vaccination in Amstelveen in 2021
Vaccination rate in autumn 2023 by age group and region. The vaccination rate for people over 60 is lowest among 60-64 year olds (31.8%) and highest among 80-84 year olds (65.8%). From week 44 onwards, a rapid increase in the vaccination rate is observed in the 75-79 age group. This increase is visible in the age group 70-74 years starting from week 46. People aged 70-79 years received the invitation for the corona vaccine a little later than the other age groups. In some municipalities in the provinces of Friesland and Overijssel the vaccination rate is slightly lower than expected based on previous vaccination cycles. An evaluation is important to investigate which factors influenced the vaccination rate.
Comparison of vaccination rates in the 2022 and 2023 autumn rounds. The vaccination rate of the autumn 2023 round for people aged 60 and over was 8.5% lower than the vaccination rate of the autumn 2022 round (vaccination rate report dated 3 January 2023). The differences between age groups show the same pattern as in 2022: also in 2022 the vaccination rate was lowest among 60-64 year olds and highest among 75-79 and 80-84 year olds.
The start date of a fall round was different in both years. In 2022, the autumn session started on 19 September, while in 2023 the autumn session started on 2 October. Additionally, the 2022 fall cycle had no official end date, while in 2023 people could get the coronavirus vaccine until the end of December 2023. Another difference is that the flu vaccine group between 18 and 60 years received a personal invitation via their family doctor for a vaccination at the GGD (Municipal Health Service) in 2022. In autumn 2023 this group was contacted mainly through media campaigns.
Coronaprik in 2024. Corona injection remains available for pregnant women and for adults and children from medically high-risk groups who are referred for corona injection by their healthcare provider. The corona vaccine helps protect against serious diseases caused by corona. This is reflected in the study findings on COVID-19 hospital and ICU admissions by vaccination status.
