It will therefore not be three, but four doses required for the most vulnerable. The second booster dose has indeed been opened to more than 80 years when a slight rebound in the epidemic is felt in France.
In a vaccination center in Nice (Alpes-Maritimes), Bernard, 82, came to take his new booster dose as soon as the Prime Minister announced. He performs a routine interview with a doctor, as for previous injections. Then, after the green light from the doctor, he is vaccinated. Since Monday, March 14, the vaccination center has been full.
About fifty octogenarians, or even more, come every day to receive their fourth injection. “I am a strong supporter of the vaccine”says Bernard, certifying that he has “no worries” about it. Jean-Louis, another elderly patient, is also a supporter of the vaccine and has come to take his booster dose. “No problem, you can give me as much as you want, I will always get vaccinated, that’s why I do it, I wanted to be protected”he assures. Faced with the rebound of the epidemic, some specialists believe that this fourth dose is justified for the over 80s and the immunocompromised.
