As winter approaches, the flu vaccination campaign has started. Since October 17, it has been possible to be vaccinated in pharmacies or to buy your vaccine there. For some people it’s free, for others it’s paid. After almost a week, the pharmacists found their cruising speed.
On the street, most people over 60 already have their opinion on the issue. Pierre, 70, knows that he will be vaccinated around November 15: “It is a habit. For twenty years, I have been vaccinated on the same date. So I continue.“
Evelyne, 79, will not be vaccinated: “I’ve never been sick in the winter so my doctor told me to wait. When I have the flu or whatever, I’ll go get vaccinated.“
“A lot of people come to get vaccinated for the flu and covid”
At the Lafayette pharmacy in Reims, the days follow one another and are the same for pharmacist Perrine Wayere: “On the first day, we had a lot of people, and now we vaccinate around ten people per day from Monday to Friday. Most also come to be vaccinated once morest covid.“
A good part of patients are people aged 65 to 70 years old : “They all received their social security voucher, so they come without an appointment.“For those who are not concerned by the reimbursement of the vaccine, the dose costs between 11 and 12 euros according to this pharmacist.
