President LR of the Paca region wants to make the gymnasiums of all public high schools in his six departments available to vaccinate the population against Covid-19 during spring break.
Renaud Muselier's project is now in the hands of Minister of Health Olivier Véran, specifies the community.
Some 150 multipurpose rooms and gymnasiums have been identified by the region, which proposes to open them from April 26 to May 9.
"Vaccinobus" in remote villages
To achieve the pace of an "intensive vaccination", it provides for the establishment during this period of an "exceptional reserve" made up of retired caregivers, around 5,000, and 10,000 nursing students.
In addition, six "vaccinobus" are going in the coming days to go "in an exceptional way" to the most remote villages.
In addition, “special stops” will be set up for regional coaches “which already pass in the vicinity” of vaccinodromes on “each of their classic rotations”.
To date, 512,000 people have received a first injection in Paca, a region with some 5 million inhabitants, including those in the Alpes-Maritimes.
Like fifteen others in France, this department has been subject to new confinement since Saturday.
