“We can vaccinate 1,000 people a day in Valentrie space” – Medialot

Pollen Arena is open until December 19.

On December 15, Lot’s governor, Michael Prosek, visited “Vaccine Yard,” the large-capacity vaccination center in Valentrie Space, which is open until December 19 (initially). Jean-Marc Visuz, Mayor of Cahors, Cluster President, Serge Regal, Head of Department and SDIS, Anne Laportere, Vice-President of the SDIS, and Julie Singer, Departmental Delegate at ARS, were particularly his sides. We’ve always played the proximity card in this health crisis. In light of the situation, and since all lot residents have the possibility to receive a third booster shot as soon as possible or to receive a vaccination if this is not the case, we have opened this center. It can vaccinate 1,000 people per day,” according to the state representative, who noted that the vaccination center located in the Bessier district of Cahors has also extended its working hours and that there are 13 other vaccination centers distributed across the country. “If we have to do more, we will do more,” he added, welcoming the mobilization of PTA firefighters, liberal nurses and staff from the county and thanking Cahors City Council for agreeing to the site. The conclusion of Colonel Jean-Francois Galtet, chief of the Lot fire brigade: “It is a collective adventure of mass vaccination. “

> The center is open from 9am to 7pm non-stop until December 19th. Many slots have been opened in https://www.doctolib.fr/vaccination-covid-19/cahors. The center will also vaccinate volunteers, especially people over 65 years of age, and people who want to receive their first injection. The Vaccine Arena primarily welcomes volunteers over the age of 30 who will receive a dose of the Moderna vaccine. People under 30 can be vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine on Saturday morning by appointment (or at the Clément Marot space or with health professionals at other outlets). This distinction must be made when making an appointment on Doctolib, otherwise you will be automatically blocked by the app, and you will not be able to access an appointment.

> Vaccination for vulnerable children will start initially at Cahors Hospital before being extended to the entire department
