In a press release, published this Monday, November 22, Christian Estrosi announced that his citizens will be able to access a third dose of vaccine against Covid-19, from December 1, regardless of their age. “The inhabitants of Nice and Metropolitan who have completed their vaccination cycle for 6 months, can, if they wish, carry out their 3rd dose in the vaccination centers of the Metropolis, and this, without age limit, from December 1st, from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. within the limit of the remaining doses available, “the statement said. As a reminder, for the time being, only those over 65 can claim it, and from December 1, the booster dose will be extended to over 50s.
