pharmacies again stormed for vaccinations

A couple is delighted to have found an appointment to be vaccinated against Covid-19. The outbreak of contamination worried them. For the past few days, the pharmacy has been full. “We have our full schedules until next Friday, when we usually do 10, 12 vaccines a day. There we are at more than 50“, confides Geraldine Benabidespharmacist. Appointments have also soared on online booking sites over the past few days, from 7,103 on April 16 to 26,379 on June 29.

Difficult, in some small towns, to get an appointment quickly for a vaccination in a pharmacy. In some municipalities in the South-West, you sometimes have to wait until August to find a place. In Nantes (Loire Atlantique)a pharmacy cannot offer a slot before July 20. The doses will not fail, unlike the arms to prick, especially because the vaccination centers no longer exist. “We really take ourselves in the head the wave which arrives“, explains Melanie Bonalpharmacist.
