Brazilian Neymar, 29 and star of Paris Saint-Germain, announced this Thursday that was vaccinated in France against COVID – 19 and showed his desire for the inoculations to arrive “as quickly as possible” not only to his country, “but to the whole world.”

“I want everything to return to normal as soon as possible and that not only my country, Brazil, is vaccinated, but the whole world,” said the footballer in a message on Instagram.

The Brazilian star published on that social network a video in which a nurse injects a dose – he does not specify which vaccine – in his left arm, almost completely tattooed.

“After so much waiting, it was my turn,” he added. The player was infected by COVID – 19 last September.

In France, where more than 30% of the population is already immunized, vaccination is open since the past 12 May to all adults, although under certain conditions.

Children under 50 can receive doses as long as they have some left over from one day to the next, usually due to cancellations of consultations.

However, the French Government has just announced the advance of the 15 from June to 31 May general vaccination for all those of legal age, without restrictions.
