France administered doses to about 140 people yesterday
France s European Affairs Minister has said the country will not fail in its Covid-19 vaccination campaign, after coming under fire for the slow start of its roll-out compared with its European neighbours.
Minister Clement Beaune told France s LCI television that the vaccination campaign was just beginning in the country.
France, which is primarily targeting the most vulnerable people in nursing homes for the first phase of the campaign, administered doses to about 140 people yesterday.
That was well below the 42,000 who received shots in Germany, for instance.
Yesterday the French health ministry reported 26,457 new coronavirus infections, up sharply from 11,395 on Tuesday, and a level unseen since 18 November.
