You are over 50, will you be getting the third dose of vaccine?

Rebelote. Tuesday evening, Emmanuel Macron announced that French people over 65 will have to receive a vaccine booster against Covid-19 if they wish to obtain or keep their health pass from mid-December. Gabriel Attal said this Wednesday morning on France Info that from December 15, the health pass for over 65s would be deactivated for lack of a third dose of vaccine against Covid-19 six months and five weeks after the second injection. “Thanks to vaccination, we have built a wall against serious forms. This wall must not crack, ”he insisted.

Booster dose extended to over 50s

Another announcement: the third dose of vaccine will be available to French people aged 50 and over from December. On the other hand, between 50 and 65 years old, there will be no suspension of the health pass if this reminder is not carried out.

The answer was not long in coming. Tuesday evening, between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m., Doctolib recorded 100,000 appointments made for a booster dose. And this Wednesday morning, that number climbed to 150,000. Will this trend be confirmed in the coming weeks? Will the French agree to go through an injection again?

If you are between 50 and 65, have you already made an appointment for this booster dose? Why ? Will you wait until this is mandatory to save your health pass? If you are over 65, are you planning to have a new injection? Did the president’s announcement change your mind? Would you like to combine a vaccine against Covid-19 and against the flu? Do you have any reservations?
