This Vaccine Against a Fatal Infection Is Finally Reimbursed for Those over the Age of 65 (and It Is Not the Flu Vaccine)

Summary by Pleine Vie
The green light was long overdue: since October 10, 2025, the vaccine against pneumococcal infections has been officially reimbursed for all people over 65 years of age in France. Until now, this care has only concerned seniors with co-morbidities. A major change was made by decree and published in the Official Journal, which is taking place as the winter season approaches, a critical period for this type of infection.
