Increase in appointments at the Athanor vaccination center in Montluçon (Allier), stagnation at the hospital

“We went from 700 to 1,500 vaccines per day after Emmanuel Macron’s last speech”, rejoices Christian Quach, coordinating doctor of the Athanor vaccination center in Montluçon.

100,000 doses injected since January in the Montluçonnais basin

To meet this demand, the establishment is now open five days a week against 3.5 to 4 days a week before the intervention of the President of the Republic. With nearly 100,000 doses injected since January and currently 5,000 to 6,000 distributed per week, the Montluçonnais basin shows good scores in terms of vaccination. But Athanor could quickly reach his limits.

We’re almost full. We risk not having enough doses with our current endowments.

While specifying that the Regional Health Agency should deliver 250 additional doses to the center during the week. The dynamics are a little different among hospital professionals.

No enthusiasm for the vaccine in the hospital after the intervention of Emmanuel Macron

“72% of the agents have entered the vaccination schedule. And 67 to 68% received two doses, ”assures Bernadette Mallot, director of the Montluçon-Néris-les-Bains hospital center. However, the head of the establishment observed a certain stagnation in requests:

We proposed two additional days of vaccination following the intervention of the president. But there was no particular enthusiasm after the speech. We have reached a glass ceiling.

However, from September 15, all hospital staff will have to have received two doses or one dose and present a negative PCR test to be able to work. At the risk of being laid off without pay.
