Nicole Trisse, MP, opposes confinement

Hospital pressure is increasing. The number of South African and Brazilian variants exhibits. The health situation of the Moselle is considered very worrying by the Minister of Health, Olivier Véran, traveling to Metz this afternoon. “The Metz / Thionville axis is particularly affected, as well as the Saint-Avold / Forbach axis,” notes Nicole Trisse, the member for the district of Sarreguemines. But there is no escape from the chains of contamination. ”

In Sarreguemines, the epidemic remains contained, despite an increase in the positivity rate for PCR tests for a week. It amounts to 5%. “But the activity remains under control at the Robert-Pax hospital”, compared to neighboring establishments. This Friday morning, 19 patients were taken care of, including three in intensive care. “The population is particularly respectful of barrier gestures, which limits the spread of the virus”, analyzes the elected official.

“Do not penalize the territory”

Nicole Trisse will participate this afternoon in the videoconference organized by the Minister of Health. She will oppose a containment of the department, “in view of the situation of the constituency. She doesn’t have to be penalized, she insists. I know the consequences and the distress that confinement can cause. It should only be the ultimate solution. “Local confinement, limited to the cities most affected,” Metz, Thionville, Saint-Avold, Forbach seems complicated to implement. “

The MP will also discuss the acceleration of the vaccination policy desired by many local elected officials. Since the start of the year, several of them have called for the opening of centers in Sarralbe, Bitche or Sarreguemines. In vain. “I understand their request, but the vaccination campaign is subject to deliveries of ‘Moderna and Pfizer’ vaccines, which require special logistics. Compared to other departments, with an identical number of inhabitants, we have received three times more Moderna vaccines, ”she defends.

Three new vaccines will be marketed in March-April and May, “which will speed up the campaign by no longer passing through the centers. Pharmacists and attending physicians will also enter the loop. “In the meantime, if we multiply the sites with the same endowments, we risk ruptures. ”

Other elected officials are calling for more endowments to the most affected areas, such as the Moselle. “A point that will be discussed this afternoon with the Minister. “
