The center "will vaccinate at least 1,000 people per day", but will have the particularity of being open only on weekends, thanks to the mobilization of about sixty doctors, nurses, firefighters and reception staff, according to the organizers. .
Appointments will only be made online, they said.

During a meeting at the Elysee Palace on Tuesday, Emmanuel Macron welcomed the fact that vaccination "is accelerating", with nearly 13 million people having received at least a first dose.
The Covid-19 epidemic seems to be on a downward slope in France, but the strain on the health system remains strong, with 31,086 hospitalized patients, including almost 6,000 in intensive care, according to the latest figures.
