Since July 11, 2022, in addition to people who have had risky contact with a sick person, people falling within the indications retained by the HAS can make an appointment to be vaccinated throughout France:
- Men who have sex with men and trans people, both multipartners,
- people in prostitution,
- Professionals working in places of sexual consumption.
Vaccination can also be considered on a case-by-case basis for health professionals who have to take care of sick people.
Several places are identified in Normandy and can carry out this vaccination (see below).
Vaccination once morest Monkeypox: how does it work?
As a reminder, the vaccination schedule includes 2 doses 28 days apart (or 1 single dose for people who have already been vaccinated once morest smallpox, and 3 doses for immunocompromised people). Vaccination can be carried out by a doctor or by an IDE on medical prescription.
Volunteers and persons concerned will be able to access vaccination on the basis of a self-declaration of their status as a target person for vaccination, following evaluation of the individual benefit-risk balance of this vaccination.
People reporting a risky contact with a sick person will also be able to access vaccination in the same way.
Vaccination does not provide immediate protection, so it is important to continue to avoid risky contact with anyone infected or suspected of having Monkeypox virus.
Where and how to get vaccinated?
Preventive vaccinations are gradually opening up in Normandy, the structures designated by the ARS offer vaccination to their patients and will quickly open new slots by appointment only.
Priority in hospital services must be given to post-exposure situations.
The vaccination offered in these places is free. It requires making an appointment in advance.
