They are "
at the heart of the news
".
While the vaccination campaign is in the acceleration phase, the Cese, mandated by the Prime Minister, Jean Castex, to formulate recommendations on the opening of vaccination to the general public, continues its work.
The temporary committee and the citizens' collective engaged on Monday at a new stage.

“
I think we're coming at the right time.
There was a shortage of doses but things are accelerating and we are there on time,
”said Marjorie, a citizen from Drôme.
In two months, the 30 citizens of the collective have established eight poles of reflection.
“
These are the elements that seemed to us the most essential to offer.
They are urgently needed,
”emphasizes Marjorie.
Citizens thus plead for "
better communication between actors in the field
", in particular by authorizing "
all health professionals
" to vaccinate "
in complete autonomy.
".
They also call for more vaccination sites and mobile units, as well as an awareness campaign aimed at "
precarious populations by mobilizing specialized associations
".
The question of treatment is also considered "
as important as that of vaccination
".
Above all, it is on vaccine communication that the members of the collective want to advance.
They warn about "
too anxiety-provoking communication
" and advocate "
positive and appropriate communication for each category of the population
".
"Young ambassadors"
With the main target: young people.
“
We would like there to be young ambassadors who formulate their own proposals to be circulated on social networks.
Young people are an essential element of vaccination too far from current government spots
, ”regrets Marjorie.
These proposals are transmitted to the Prime Minister by the Cese "
over the water
".
Present at this stage, Prof. Alain Fischer, chairman of the Vaccine Strategy Orientation Council placed with the Minister of Health, also guaranteed to have relied on these recommendations to formulate his own advice to the government.
“
We don't have the impression of working in a vacuum,
” Marjorie attests.
“We really hope to be heard
.
Even if the government does not quote us, we recognize our proposals in certain announcements,
”she continues.

While a transitional period of change of mandate begins at the Cese, the citizen collective will work exclusively with Professor Fischer for a month.
After unveiling the most essential orientations in their eyes, citizens will look at their 40 other proposals at a new session in early April.
"
We are going to detail them as much as possible so that, once transmitted to the government, they can be applied directly on the ground,
" comments Marjorie.
In the meantime, Professor Fischer has already mandated the citizens of a new line of thought.
The latter will focus
on
“
the population's confidence in vaccination, and in particular on crisis management communication
”.
