I know rules will change between now and later this year when I get back to Germany, but I'm researching the current requirements and it appears Germany no longer recognizes J&J/Janssen as a full immunization against Covid-19? Am I reading this right?

The rules say you must have a full two shots to qualify as immunized through Sept 30, 2022. There is no mention of one shot vaccines unless you have a single shot plus proof of being sick. I last went to Germany in October and the single shot vaccine was acceptable.

So if I'm reading this right and someone has the J&J/Janssen vaccine only then the following is true:
1. They must get at least one shot of Pfizer/Moderna before traveling to Germany and this will only allow entry through Sept 30, 2022.
2. At least two months after the dose from above, another Pfizer/Moderna dose is required to qualify for entry into Germany starting October 1, 2022.

Is this correct? (Note: I believe there are ways to test out of this using PCR/antigen tests but my comments deal solely with what Germany now considers "fully vaccinated").

Thanks,
