A new rush on Doctolib. Three million Covid-19 vaccination appointments have been made since the announcement on Thursday of the extension of the recall campaign to the entire adult population, says Olivier Véran on Twitter. “This Saturday, the booster vaccination opens to everyone from 18 years old,” recalls the Minister of Health.
“19 million of us are already eligible,” we can read on his Twitter account.

19 million of us are already eligible and will be able to be vaccinated at their pharmacist, doctor or center.

Let’s not let our guard down!– Olivier Véran (@olivierveran) November 27, 2021
More than 6 million French people have recalled
Before Thursday, the recall only concerned people over 65, people at risk of severe form and caregivers. To date, more than 6 million people in France have received a booster dose, most often a third injection.
Friday morning, the Doctolib medical appointment booking platform had reported more than 1.2 million appointments booked since Olivier Véran spoke the day before. A comparable influx had already been observed in July after the announcement of the implementation of the health pass. In the week following Emmanuel Macron’s summer address, Doctolib had recorded 4.3 million appointments, and the number of injections had peaked at nearly 4.8 million.
