Local elected officials called for it, the first vaccination center in the Fensch Valley finally opened its doors on Tuesday March 3, at the village hall of Serémange-Erzange. Since then, the ballet of candidates orchestrated by agents of the Val de Fensch urban community (CAVF) has been uninterrupted, the slots reserved via the Doctolib site quickly sold out.
Except that the day after this operation which must stretch over fifteen days (for the first injection), a shadow emerges on the board: it lacks the necessary to ensure the vaccinations scheduled for next week. A delivery of 500 doses of the Moderna vaccine has already been confirmed, while “we should have 650 to allow the vaccination of people already registered on Doctolib,” said the CAVF. In other words, some might have the unpleasant surprise of seeing their appointment canceled.

” Scandal “
This Thursday afternoon, the president of the CAVF Michel Liebgott questioned the sub-prefect of Thionville. “It would be a scandal if we were not able to carry out the vaccinations over the last few days”, he reacted. “We will relaunch every day, I dare to think that we will get the doses because it seems to be a political will to speed up the vaccination, but to date, nothing has been done. “
Demand remains extremely strong with patients coming from all over the department. “A person even moved from Paris to be able to be vaccinated”, confided the president.
Nurses dispatched to the scene said they were ready to continue vaccinations beyond next week. “It would be a shame if we were only a transitional center”, observes Michel Liebgott in favor of this initiative which would “lighten the workload of general practitioners”. But again, goodwill is not enough. We need vaccines.
