“The government’s position is clear: we follow the advice of scientists.” The government closes the door “at this stage” to a reintegration of caregivers not vaccinated against Covid-19, announced the Minister of Health, François Braun, Friday July 22. The opinion of the scientific authorities is “negative” on this point, he justified, recalling his commitment to “follow this advice” specialized organizations.
Earlier in the day, the High Authority for Health said to itself “in favor of maintaining the obligation to vaccinate against (the) Covid-19 for personnel working in health and medico-social establishments”. In recent days, the Academy of Medicine and the Scientific Council had also expressed their reservations about a possible return to work for these professionals.
“I will bring together the trade unions from the beginning of next week to explain the situation to them, to see with them how we plan to get out of it, perhaps in a few months”said the Minister of Health, traveling to a hospital in Seine-et-Marne.
