French President Emmanuel Macron has announced his country's vaccination campaign will be stepped up, as he opened the biggest vaccination centre in the capital Paris.

Axar.az reports that this was reported by foreign media.

Anyone over the age of 50 would be able to be vaccinated from Monday - five days earlier than scheduled - and the doses remaining at the end of the day would be available to all adults the next day "without age limit", he said.

Under current rules, vaccines are only available to over-55s or people with chronic health problems.

"We don't want even a single dose to go to waste," he said at the inauguration of the so-called vaccinodrome at the Porte de Versailles exhibition centre in the south west of the capital.

The centre, which is run by the fire brigade, has the capacity to vaccinate up to 3,000 people every day.
