the health pass becomes a vaccination pass

The health pass becomes, Friday, December 17, a vaccination pass. A test will no longer be enough to enter a restaurant, a bar or travel: it will now be necessary to be vaccinated against Covid-19. “We assume to put the constraint on the unvaccinated”, declared Prime Minister Jean Castex. In question, the saturation of critical care services in hospitals, “mostly filled with unvaccinated people”.

A bill will be presented at the beginning of January. Jean Castex recommends vigilance during the holiday season, and asks the French to be tested and to avoid gatherings. For December 31, wild gatherings will be prohibited, as well as the consumption of alcohol on public roads. The time limit for the booster dose goes from 5 to 4 months.
