Info not to be missed
“Five progressive phases”, this is what the High Authority of Health (HAS) recommends in France's vaccine strategy against Covid-19.
For the president of the HAS, Dominique Le Guludec, it is necessary "to protect as a priority the most vulnerable and those who take care of them".
This is why she advises to vaccinate, as soon as "the arrival of the very first doses", the elderly residing in nursing homes (approximately 750,000 people) and the employees of these establishments "who themselves present a risk of serious form" (90,000 to 100,000 people).
Phase 2 would concern those over 75 and 65-74 with co-morbidities, "professionals in the health, medico-social and medical transport sector, prioritizing professionals over 50" or presenting a serious risk.
Then would come those over 50 with co-morbidities, as well as all caregivers, before the vaccination focuses on the most exposed jobs and precarious people (homeless, prisoners, etc.) As for phase 5, it would target over 18 years, without comorbidity.

Our verdict

Passed for decades between the cracks of the net, the pedophile surgeon Joël Le Scouarnec finally faces justice.
If his trial begins on Monday, he is only the first in a long list to come: the (almost) septuagenarian is suspected of having abused more than 300 children.
Four small victims are concerned by this first legal step, two of his nieces, one of his former patients and his ex-neighbor.
For these acts of rape and aggravated sexual assault, he risks twenty years in prison.

60 years later, his device has just been discovered at a depth of 2,400 meters, off the island of Porquerolles.
