Other screenings are planned for this Saturday August 22 in the parking lot of the multifunctional room of Veymerange, on Friday August 28 in the parking lot of the Place de la Liberté and on Saturday August 29 in the parking lot of Leclerc, route d’Arlon. For these last two dates, the device will be amplified. Volunteer medical students and nurses carry out PCR tests exclusively (in the nose). Why ? “This is the rule in France, which is not the case in Luxembourg, which has opted for the oral swab. But rest assured, the PCR test does not hurt! You just feel discomfort for two to three seconds, it tingles as if you were inhaling chlorinated water, ”says Isabelle From. A little reminder if you want to be tested, it’s free, without an appointment, open to all Thionville and non-Thionville residents, adults and children. You just have to remember not to forget your vital card.
