“Times are changing, alas. Laurent Cavalieri, head of the municipal police force in Thionville, sighs. It seems very distant, even inaudible, the echo of the pot drummed every evening to greet the hard work of the caregivers. The euphoria of the first vaccination campaign, electrifying as a day of national liberation, has also been diluted over time.
Today, even the asymptomatic suffer from covid. Wear and tear, nervousness as undesirable side effects.

“The whims of the rich”
“It is sometimes complicated, I admit. The tension is very palpable ”, regrets the Mr. Doctolib of the municipal vaccination center. The day before, a computer bug slowed down, by a quarter of an hour, the pace of the site: “We immediately noticed the tension. “
Police in the long queue that stretches every day in front of the Espace Saint-Nicolas is not uncommon. Aggravating factor of discord: the scarcity of Pfizer, the benchmark value of the vaccination campaign: “Recently, a woman complained of not having Pfizer.

Enhanced surveillance
Biogroup’s seven largest Moselle sites, including Thionville, have thus been subject to enhanced surveillance since December 13. A reinforcement far from being superfluous, evidenced by the recent assault of a security officer in front of the center of Hagondange. “The contract has been extended at least for this month of January,” says François Joppin.
