So there will be another wave coming once travel starts freely.
People here in France sceptical with the Astra Zenica vaccine and many not going to take it.
We have and no issues other than a little fatigue.
According to media Nice was yesterday going to vaccinate 4,000 public servants and only 50 turned up.

A ridiculous state of affairs.

Have they no idea what impact this has on our Le Mans plans?? Selfish beyond belief.

That Macron chap, sticking around, is he?

Totally agree but speaking with neighbors and also Ms French's family they don't trust the powers that be.
This stems back many years going back to HIV and blood transfusions and many people losing their lives.
It doesn't help that one minute the vaccine is safe and the next risky.
We need to be able to travel as we have family members around the World so we took the vaccine as that's the only way forward.
I really don't know how it will unfold at all.

On the news now it looks like France will be welcoming people with vaccine passports from the first of May.
Still got the issue of people here not taking the jab.

Doesn't help as listening to the news this evening a so called medical expert was saying he would only have the Phizer jab so people ain't going to be taking the other.
It's a big problem brewing I reckon.

Interesting insights, thanks Phil.

We had the jab to slow the spread, reduce the possibility of mutations and to avoid catching COVID. Just now I'd prefer to not travel because I want to travel unfettered. We're lucky that our family is mostly UK-based.

Did they just not turn up for the vaccine or do they not normally turn up for work.

I would think it's different to Nigeria mate.
People are just not taking the vaccinés that are available and that's how we got done a week ago today.

I know. Just reminded me of that.

Its strange coz the French are usually far more “for the good of the State” oriented than we are.

Covid-19 and vaccinations is certainly causing a stir here that's for sure.
Can't see how it will work with people coming and going when borders open up and lots of people not having the jab ?
