Espace Saint-Nicolas is preparing to open

From February 26 to August 14, the vaccination center installed at the Théâtre de Thionville, then at the Salle Verlaine, carried out 80,000 injections, first and second doses combined, thanks to the mobilization of more than 200 caregivers, volunteers and administrative staff de Thionville, Terville and Yutz. As announced, and still as part of the pursuit of vaccine protection, the City of Thionville will open a new vaccination center as of Friday, September 3, at Espace Saint-Nicolas, 5, rue Saint-Nicolas. The device was presented by Jean-Christophe Hamelin-Boyer, elected in charge of health.

Why Espace Saint-Nicolas?

The Espace Saint-Nicolas is much larger than the Salle Verlaine. The area is multiplied by three. It is therefore more suitable for a vaccination center.

Who will operate the center?

He will rely on liberal or retired health professionals to carry out the vaccination. Security and logistics will be provided by administrative staff from the City of Thionville, members of the civic reserve and volunteers.

What will its opening hours be?

Friday and Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. It will be made up of two queues, one with an appointment made on Doctolib, the other without an appointment. Some 300 injections are planned each day.

Who are the targeted people?

The City pays particular attention to vaccination within sports associations, recalling that the health pass will be compulsory from September 30 to enter collective facilities. She also wants to encourage the vaccination of high school and college students. “Of the 8,000 high school and college students in the agglomeration, around 5,000 are fully vaccinated,” says Jean-Christophe Hamelin-Boyer. It is however probable that certain establishments are oriented towards the other open centers of the city, Bel-Air and Notre-Dame. “

Will the center vaccinate for the 3e dose ?

Sure, but he hasn’t received any instructions yet. “We will adapt quickly, as usual,” concludes the elected.
