Nearly 10,000 new cases of Covid-19 were recorded yesterday by Public Health France, twice as many as three weeks ago. Emmanuel Macron addresses the French again on Tuesday at 8 p.m. to discuss the health crisis in particular. For the executive, the question of the third dose for all is now central. 

Now is the time for measurements.

The first will be applied from tomorrow with the return of the wearing of the compulsory mask at school in 39 departments.

In this context, Emmanuel Macron will address the French on Tuesday evening at 8 p.m.

The president will approach the health crisis with undoubtedly the objective of giving a boost to the vaccination campaign.

One of the avenues studied would be a third dose generalized to all because the figures are bad.

Less than half of eligible people, those over 65 and the most fragile, received this booster dose.

500,000 doses are injected each week while this figure could reach two million.

 Vaccine reminder, mask… What will Emmanuel Macron announce on Tuesday evening?

"People are not very motivated to do a third dose, or more exactly a booster injection, because they think that the risk is not very important", explains Jacques Battistoni, president of the first union of general practitioners.

"I believe the fear of illness is the easiest to motivate people."

He expects a strong message from the president on Tuesday.

"Not safe from a fifth wave"

For the general practitioner, "it is not a question of frightening for the sake of frightening, but we must remember that we are not immune to a fifth wave, even if it does not start very quickly", He explains, before recalling that "the figures are still rising".

A single solution according to Jacques Battistoni: "The epidemic is picking up a little and one of the best ways to stop it, and to avoid the contamination of each other", therefore collective immunity.

The announcement Friday of Emmanuel Macron's speech is already having effects.

The same day, 63,000 people made an appointment on Doctolib for a third dose of the anti-Covid vaccine.

Jean Castex also mentioned the conditioning of the sanitary pass at the third dose.

"It's premature", answers the general practitioner.

The absolute priority goes, according to him, to the most fragile.
