While the French authorities announced the replacement of the health pass by a vaccination pass, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, fierce opponent of the device, took advantage of the day of December 24 to offer his readers on Facebook a ” revelation “: To read it, the vaccine pass would have been planned by the European Commission in 2019, before the pandemic.
Under this catchy title, an old video from January 2021 in which Sophia Chikirou, former communication advisor to the rebellious leader, explains having found traces of a document dating from March 2019, from the European Commission, and already mentioning a project European vaccination passport. And Sophia Chikirou to deduce: ” This idea of this vaccine passport hides things, it does not have a health vocation, the idea is not to prevent one from contaminating each other. It is in fact a social control. “
Many commentators, such as Philippe de Villiers, had noted this mention of a vaccination record in 2019, sometimes constructing conspiracy theories.
The European Commission document cited by Sophia Chikirou exists. It dates from 2019 and does indeed mention a “vaccination passport”. But the latter has nothing to do with the Covid.
As part of the fight against vaccine-preventable diseases, such as measles, the European Commission mentioned several actions, including the establishment of a vaccination record containing standardized information on the immunization status of citizens, and especially children. For example, to facilitate the continuation of compulsory vaccinations in the event of a change of country.
In short, an information tool that has little to do with the “vaccine pass” debated today.
