Around one in one hundred people in Germany has so far been vaccinated against the novel coronavirus.
By Thursday noon, 842,455 people had received the first of two injections, as the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) announced on Thursday.
A vaccination quota of 1.01 percent of the population had thus been achieved.
For complete vaccination protection against the coronavirus, two injections about three weeks apart are required.
So far, the product from the German manufacturer Biontech and its US partner Pfizer has been primarily used in this country, and to a lesser extent that from the US manufacturer Moderna.
The federally owned Paul Ehrlich Institute (PEI) has so far not had any indications of possible increased side effects with vaccinations against the corona virus.
By Sunday, 325 suspected cases had been reported to him, the PEI announced on Thursday in Langen, Hesse.
51 cases are to be assessed as serious.
The values are consistent with the data from the clinical approval studies and also statistically inconspicuous.

"So far we have not seen any new risk signals," said PEI expert Brigitte Keller-Stanislawski to journalists on Thursday.
At the same time, she emphasized that these were suspected cases in which a causal relationship to the vaccination had not been proven.
PEI President Klaus Cichutek emphasized that the risks of the two approved vaccines are "very, very limited" according to the current status.
