Pharmacists can open on Sundays if they wish in order to inject booster doses of the Covid-19 vaccine and to speed up the campaign.
Since December 12, pharmacists can open on Sundays to inject a booster dose and speed up the vaccination campaign against Covid-19. According to France Info, few professionals have taken this decision for the moment due in particular to a lack of personnel and an insufficient quantity of pre-ordered doses.
According to the latest figures from Ministry of Health As of December 9, more than 52 million people have received their first dose of vaccine and 12,162,428 have received three doses. On December 12, France was going through a fifth epidemic wave and Public Health France has 43,848 new confirmed cases. There are 6771 hospitalizations over the last 7 days and 1554 critical care admissions.
The Omicron variant, discovered in South Africa and known to be very contagious, is gaining ground in France since it concerns around forty cases. “There are over 400 confirmed cases in Europe at this stage”, corn “it is estimated that there are probably several thousand cases in circulation in the process of being diagnosed”, indicated last Monday the Minister of Health, Olivier Véran.
