STATION F to host a Covid-19 vaccination site starting June 28

The Regional Health Authority (ARS) of the Paris region, STATION F, the world’s largest startup campus and the French Red Cross announced today that they will open a temporary Covid-19 vaccination site at STATION F between June 28 and July 4. This vaccination site, located in the heart of the campus will be open to all, including STATION F’s residents, visitors of La Felicità, neighborhood residents, students and all volunteers who want to get vaccinated in this amazing environment.

Open from 8am to 8pm, STATION F’s vaccination site will be accessible with and without appointments to offer a maximum flexibility. Those who want to take an appointment can already do so using Doctolib. Throughout the week, more than 5.000 vaccinations will be made at STATION F. On site, everyone will be able to enter using STATION F’s main entrance, 5 parvis Alan Turing, 75013 Paris (metro line 6 & 14).

“Being a campus with thousands of visitors every day is also a huge responsibility. We’re proud to support the Covid-19 vaccination campaign by working with the ARS and the red cross to extend the vaccination coverage in the region. This temporary vaccination center will enable volunteers to be vaccinated while discovering STATION F and its historical monument”, said Grégoire Martinez, Head of Community & Communication at STATION F.

“STATION F is an iconic place of work, life and meeting. It seemed obvious to us to come and set up a vaccination center in these workspaces. With the support of the red cross, more than 5.000 vaccinations will be made. These are people who will avoid serious forms of Covid-19 and who will protect those around them. I strongly encourage all those coming frequently to STATION F or to the neighborhood to come to get vaccinated and make this place as it was before again”, explained Tanguy Bodin, director for Paris at the Regional Health Authority (ARS Ile de France).

Jean-Christophe Combe, General Manager of the French Red Cross added “Since autumn 2020, we have offered concrete solutions to make the access to vaccination easier. Since then, our tens of thousands of actors have been committed on a daily basis throughout the country to vaccinate as many people as possible. It is therefore with enthusiasm that our teams will intervene in this innovative and inspiring place"
