The SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus epidemic may continue to calm down in France, but fake news is still very present. Latest: this Monday, May 16, 2022, on the set of the program “Touche pas à mon poste”, columnist Benjamin Castaldi said that the anti-Covid-19 vaccination schedule provided for up to… 10 doses of vaccine.
“It has not been announced, but it is in the software of nurses and doctors, we will go up to ten booster doseshe assured. It will be a reminder every three months (…) It is obvious that we will go to ten doses.“
Some patients may need 7 doses of Covid vaccine
Are we really going to receive 10 doses of the anti-Covid-19 vaccine? Of course not. But there is a subtlety – which gave rise to this fake news. Indeed : “for severely immunocompromised people, the initial schedule was three doses, then a first booster in July 2021, a second booster last fall and a new booster in January“explained Yvanie Caillé, founder of the Renaloo association, to our colleagues from Parisian.
Thus, some very specific patients have been able (to date) to receive up to 6-7 doses of vaccine against the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. This explains why, on the screenshots of the Covid Vaccine interface (used only by health professionals) which have “leaked” on social networks, it is possible to notify that a patient is in his ” 7th vaccination”.
“The aim is to cover the rare cases that may have a high number of injections, up to seven exceptionally“concludes Health Insurance. But this only concerns a very small part of the French population, suffering from a serious immune deficiency. CQFD!
