@Sue No. This is not a field on the certificate.

Sue Davis Sep 19, 2022:

doesn't it ask for the level of vaccination of the person in question?

Ethan Tufford (asker) Sep 18, 2022:

Term related to bio-data or registry This term is not found in the section regarding the administration of vaccines. It is found on the bio-data page of the certificate. Therefore, I don't think it has any relation to the "vaccine range" or "rank".

The page reads as follows:

Ministère de la Santé Publique et de la Population et Les Centres pour le développement et la Santé

1. Commune ________
2. Établissement ________
3. Poste de rassemblement ________
4. Nom de famille ________ Prénom ________
5. Sexe: M ☐ F ☐
6. Date de naissance ________
7. Immatriculation ________
Vacc. Rang. ________ Page ________

that is a good point Phil more context would help

philgoddard Sep 18, 2022:

The only thing is the period/full stop after the word, suggesting it's an abbreviation. But that could be a mistake.

Gabrielle Leyden Sep 18, 2022:

rang definitely "rang" = ranking, probably meaning 1st shot, 2nd-3rd-4th booster, etc. The period after "rang" doesn't mean anything, in my humble opinion.

I do agree with Tony, cf.

@ Asker I somehow think your are being led astray with the idea of 'rangée'.
I suspect this is more 'rang' (not actually abbreviated at all) with the sense of 'rank' or 'order' — we find this in things like the order of birth of 2 twins.
I can't quite see how this applies to vaccination either, but perhaps there is a local system that requires it to be noted.
Does your document actually have anything filled in after it? That might help to narrow down the possibilities.

Tony M Sep 18, 2022:

@ Cristina Unlikely, I'd have thought: 'rang' in FR hardly ever means 'range' in EN, and your suggestion wouldn't really seem to make much sense in EN anyway.

vaccine range "Gamma had high viral load inferred from Ct values < 30 despite having received at least one dose of COVID-19 vaccine (range from > 1 month after first dose to > 5 months after second dose); two were previously infected"

"In this study, the duration of neutralizing antibody response in patients with solid cancers was significantly longer after the Moderna vaccine (range, 221-226 days, depending on the SARS-CoV-2 variant) than after the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine (range, 146-161 days)."

I wonder how "vacc." would be part of this abbreviation. "vaccination rangée" / "vaccin rangée" doesn't make sense to me.
