“The vaccine? We want to do it to be quieter, to feel more secure”, admit Claude, 80 years old and Jacqueline 82 years old, two Flayoscais who came, Monday afternoon, to try to dig up a meeting at the center. vaccination program at the Saint-Exupéry complex in Draguignan.
But without an appointment, the couple stayed at the door of the Coubertin room.
Yet it is not for lack of trying to get one. But of this, all had been warned …
Worry and dismay
Since last Thursday the couple has been filling out the forms on the Internet. In vain. Indeed, as a press release from the city of Draguignan confirms, the Doctolib site no longer allows new reservations to be taken after March 12.
After this date, the slots are not released by the ARS (Regional Health Agency). Hence the worry and dismay of the couple who only ask for one thing: to be able to register.
“We just want a vaccination date even after March 12. It is incomprehensible that a city like Draguignan only has two people to vaccinate. Maybe we will be vaccinated in 2024!” Claude concludes with irony.
And he is not the only one to be confronted with this problem. Monique, 78, Dracénoise, also came to inquire about information from the center.
“I think they do not have the necessary quantities of vaccines”, she analyzes.
And for good reason, since last Wednesday, she calls but no date is available.

At the reception of the vaccination center, only one advice is given:
“Keep calling. I think I will have my date in Greece!”, launches the septuagenarian, exasperated, who would like to travel and see her grandchildren.
Just like Bernard.
At 78 years old, the Dracénois wants to join his companion who lives abroad.
“I hope that with this vaccine the borders will open more easily. But I cannot get an appointment”, he worries, indicating on his smartphone the inability to access the site.
A few meters away, other Dracenians are more serene. Like Jacques, 79, who has just received his first injection.
“My daughter advised me to get this vaccine. She’s a nurse. I think it’s good for me and everyone I hang out with.”
The Figaniérois measures his chance to be one of the first vaccinated. However, he will continue to practice barrier gestures.
