Yes the government announced Monday, December 6 not to make vaccination of children compulsory, other countries have done so. On the 19/20 set, the journalist and doctor Marina Carrère d’Encausse delivers her analysis.

Childhood vaccination began in early September in Cuba, or even early November in other countries. “It is therefore too early to have sufficient perspective on the impact of injections on 5-11 year olds”, estimates the journalist and doctor Marina Carrère d’Encausse on the set of 19/20, Monday December 6. “We should have the data from the United States by the end of December”, she specifies. On the most fragile children, the vaccine should be effective. The goal is to slow down the contamination. “It might make more sense to focus on unvaccinated adults”, emphasizes Marina Carrère d’Encausse.

Closing nightclubs is hard to take, “but we know that the contamination occurs most in closed, poorly ventilated placess, where the distance is low and where wearing a mask is not compulsory “, underlines the journalist and doctor.
