The third dose of the Covid-19 vaccine will be available to all adults by Saturday, November 27. Vaccination recommended by the High Authority for Health and applied by the government. Frédérique Prabonnaud, journalist France Télévisions, discusses the subject.
After weeks of waiting, the French will be able to benefit from the booster dose. A government announcement that will allow millions of French people to strengthen themselves in the face of the Covid-19 virus. But also a decision chosen quickly by the State. “What changes the game are new data”, reports Frédérique Prabonnaud, journalist France Televisions. The models show that a vaccination earlier than expected and distributed to a wider audience would reduce the impact of Covid-19 on the population.
The new dose could also have an impact on the entire population, recalling that Israel has already offered the third dose since the summer of 2021. “With an injection after five months, the risk of hospitalization drops from 220 per 100,000 with two doses to 14 per 100,000 with three doses”, recalls the journalist France Télévisions. A decision of collective interest that could change the situation in France.
