Metz. Health pass: what about vulnerable people?

“We are a social restaurant. Before the restaurants opened, we had not closed. We are addressing a public in very great difficulty. Martine Hoerner, director of the Espace Clovis in Metz, understands the need for a health pass, while analyzing the complexity of this constraint in this place which offers a few hours of comfort to people made vulnerable by difficult life paths. So… “We welcome as usual, we respect barrier gestures, the obligation to wear a mask, but we do not ask for the health pass. There are people who come to us who suffer from serious psychological problems. If they don’t come to rue Clovis, where will they go? “

Scheduled vaccination

Allow time for time and adapt with great agility to the sanitary measures imposed. “The CPAM, specifies the director of the Espace Clovis of the Abbé Pierre foundation, contacted me to set up a vaccination center from September 15. A mobile team, made up of two nurses and a doctor, will be dispatched, we will be able to welcome the public from other associations. The operation is being set up to support the vaccination of vulnerable groups. The Restos du cœur have also started vaccination this Friday, August 6, in Ars-sur-Moselle. About 40 beneficiaries have been vaccinated. A business that should be renewed. “We are ready to continue,” assures Alain Maurice, president of Restos du cœur. We will do this in Woippy, because we have premises available. »On other sites, it is necessary to set up ephemeral vaccination centers. Which is not a simple matter.

Adapted reception

In the meantime, when we ask the president of Restos du cœur de Moselle about the health pass in its reception centers, he lets out a little cry. “We have bits and pieces of instruction from Paris… Of the 21 centers located in West Moselle, only two cities ask us to apply the health pass: Boulay and Thionville. For the nineteen others, I am awaiting instructions from Paris. For the moment, the food distribution service takes place outside. Adaptation according to the situations. “We are unhappy, adds Alain Maurice, during the bus this winter, we welcomed people with a slingshot to ensure catering despite all the constraints. It is not our vocation. “

Sensitization

Marie-Françoise Thull, president of Secours populaire, confirms this contradictory situation: associations welcoming vulnerable audiences who need listening and welcoming, and this impossibility of receiving them in conditions worthy of the name. “We are continuing the distribution, we have organized a sort of ‘drive’. She estimates that nearly 90% of people do not have a health pass.

“We have an agreement with the CNAM (National Health Insurance Fund) which educates people about vaccination, and even makes appointments for them. But the results are not spectacular, our beneficiaries are far from taking their health into account. “
