Data

Vaccination coverage refers to the proportion of people who have been vaccinated in a given population at a specific point in time. To assess vaccination coverage, Santé publique France has conducted several surveys.

Santé publique France uses data from the COVID-19 Vaccine Database, which is operated by the National Health Insurance Fund, to produce indicators on the number of people vaccinated with COVID-19 vaccines and vaccination coverage in France.

Vaccination Uptake and Description of Hesitancy: Results from the 2024 Edition of the Santé publique France Barometer

Public Health France, notably through its Public Health France Barometer survey, has been tracking vaccination uptake since 2000 in mainland France among adults aged 18 to 75. Public Health France also studies public opinion on vaccines by surveying the population about their hesitancy toward specific vaccinations. According to the 2024 edition of the Public Health France Barometer:

  • 80% of adults aged 18 to 79 are in favor of vaccination.

  • The socioeconomic gradient persists in 2024, with higher vaccination rates among people with higher levels of education and better financial circumstances.

  • The COVID-19 vaccine is the one that elicits the most reluctance (25%), followed by the flu vaccine (7%).
