At last booster done this morning in some grotty school, staff extremely pleasant, but in the middle of what I can only describe as a ghetto. Just awaiting the sweats and shivering now.

Saumur by any chance?

very perceptive ajm obviously we are close then.

We had ours there as well. Not very easy to find, quite a dump. But as you say, the staff were pleasant and no waiting around.

Ate there still lots of roadworks in the area? We are due to go in May.

Ah, I know which area you mean ... A couple of us did some first aid training with some of the kids up there - it was interesting to say the least ! The area was be known as "Chapes Noires" in the 50s and was full of gangsters and thugs. The quarter was eventually razed to the ground and the new monstrosities that are there now were built. It also has quite a "middle eastern" touch to it .... that is, if the mosque is still there and the halal shops ..... (we moved from the area 6 years ago)

Thanks Blaze.

It seems that there are no "Centers" with or without RVs, active near or far from our bailiwick. I assume that is because they are pushing the point that this injection is voluntary and no longer needed for any health pass.

That leaves the pharmacies who I think do not administer Pfizer which we've always had.

@Loup-garou Have you asked your médecin traitant ? Some hospitals do it as they have the storage facilities, but you'd need to check with them first.

It's not necessary to have the same vaccine each time unless this has been recommended by your doctor or other medical practitioner.

@Loup-garou
There is no need to stick to Pfizer just because that is what you have already used. There is some evidence that mixing vaccines may (stress may) improve your protection.

Our first 2 jabs where Pfizer but the third was Moderna. So far we remain protected - not that that proves anything in itself.

[Loup-garou]

Yes but I've only just learnt to spell "Pfizer"!

Our MT isn’t doing 4th boosters. He told me he’s far too busy and I can concur that he is run ragged and is getting increasingly grumpy.
I keep checking on doctolib. Nothing doing yet. We could get a 4th booster in May if we can find somewhere
