Start a vaccination campaign – like the one against papillomavirus proposed for the first time directly in their school to middle school students of 5e – through a controversy, the Minister of Health, Aurélien Rousseau, would have been fine without it. The said campaign, which started Monday October 2, was made a priority project, in terms of prevention, by the Head of State, Emmanuel Macron. It is just starting to be deployed in certain regions, and will then be extended to the entire territory. “Today, there are 7,000 colleges in which there will be vaccination operations, said this Tuesday, October 3, on France Inter, Aurélien Rousseau, including 1,500 who are in the private sector. »
The controversy lies, precisely, in these figures: not all colleges in France are involved in the campaign – and not all have been invited, in the same terms, to do so. In a ministerial instruction dated June 19, the ministries of education and health, occupied at the time by Pap Ndiaye and François Braun, announced a vaccination campaign in “all public colleges”. But only, given the status of private education, in those under contract in this sector who are “volunteers”. On the national education side, it is specified that private establishments had to “declare candidates” with the rectorates, while those of the public are part, by default, of the vaccination plan. Upon arrival, 1,500 private colleges plan to get involved, out of a total of 1,660 in France. A “small blind spot”conceded Mr. Rousseau on the radio.
“I’ll give you a scoop: we inject a vaccine, we don’t inject the demon”, he said. This vaccination “protects against cancer of the cervix, vulva, vagina, anus… maybe some find it shocking but children aged 5ethey have all heard that, whether they are in the public or in the private sector”continued the minister, addressing those who say that this vaccination “would be an incitement to debauchery”, in the words of Mr. Rousseau. In France and abroad, the vaccine against a sexually transmitted virus, administered from the age of 11, is the target of disinformation campaigns from religious movements. “That parents and children, in conscience, do not want to be vaccinated [qui n’est pas obligatoire]I understand, but when establishments say “we don’t organize”, there we have a major problem”pointed out the minister.
“Organizational difficulties”
