It is time to be much more flexible, pragmatic in the management of this vaccination

" and "to

unbridle the question of age

", asked again Wednesday April 28 the mayor PS of Paris Anne Hidalgo in response to the Minister of Health Olivier Véran, who reaffirmed his desire to vaccinate "

by prioritizing the age group

".

"

Since the end of January, I have asked that we can open vaccination to teachers, to all professions who are on the front line,

" said the mayor of Paris on France Info. "

And then more broadly, I believe that we must unbridle the question of age, because it is still a scandal that doses are not used when there are many people who want to be vaccinated

".

The Minister of Health recalled Tuesday his desire to vaccinate "

by prioritizing age group

". "

If we set a target of 80% of an age group that must be vaccinated to be protected, there are still 4.3 million French people who are subject to vaccination who have not yet been vaccinated

", underlined Olivier Véran. But for Anne Hidalgo, possible candidate for the presidential election, "

we must really open up

" vaccination, "

perhaps

" in priority to the professions of the "

second line

": teachers, national and municipal police officers, supermarket employees, "

cleaning agents

”, without forgetting“

assessors and presidents of offices

»For the regional elections on June 20 and 27. At the end of March, the elected socialist was already asking "

that we unleash vaccination, that all those who want to be able to do it

".

The Parisian vaccinodrome that the mayor was calling for is due to open on May 3 at the Parc des Expositions de la Porte de Versailles, in the 15th arrondissement, she said on Tuesday during a visit to this area with the mayor LR Philippe Goujon. "

It is not the mayors who decide who should be vaccinated,

" said Anne Hidalgo, questioned on the initiatives of the LR mayors of Cannes David Lisnard and the 7th arrondissement of Paris Rachida Dati to expand the vaccinated audiences. "

On the other hand, we must listen to us, not as making demands impossible to implement, but rather as being a little more pragmatic than a form of bureaucracy which still continues to exist, especially in the health sector

", she argues.
