About 700 people are bitten there daily.

With the “drive” service, the Cap Santé group, at the origin of the project, hopes to double the number of injections performed each day.

“There will be, as in a traditional center, a doctor, a nurse and a secretary.

Reservations will always be made via the Doctolib platform ”, details to our colleagues Lamine Gharbi, president of Cap Santé.

Vaccinated people will be able to follow the pre-vaccination consultation as well as the 15-minute observation time after injection of their vehicle.
