The Economic, Social and Environmental Council (Cese) launched this Wednesday, February 17 an online consultation on the “vaccination passport”, a few days after having sent the government a recommendation in favor of “compulsory licenses” to produce vaccines anti-coronavirus.
“What do you think of the vaccination passport? “ : this is the question asked on the site participez.lecese.fr until March 7.
In response to this proposal for a pass “To access places that are now closed (restaurants, cinemas, stadiums, museums)”, five choices are proposed (from “very unfavorable” to “very favorable”), as well as a comment field “Optional”.

Side effects, the main cause for concern
This consultation follows a first questionnaire closed on Monday and the first results of which show that “Side effects are the main concern”, said Stéphanie Goujon, rapporteur of the Cese “vaccination” commission.
This body has already sent two recommendations to the government, added its president Marie-Andrée Blanc.
The first advised at the end of January to create a “Reception telephone platform” and one “Single website” to inform the population about the vaccination campaign.
The second, adopted last week, suggests to the executive to “Apply for vaccine manufacturing licenses »Already authorized and “To consider recourse to the granting of ex officio licenses”, she clarified.
Further debates are scheduled for Thursday sur “accessibility to vaccines, places of vaccination, logistics, communication, city medicine and the regions ”, With a view to the presentation of a progress report on February 23, probably accompanied by new recommendations.
These works will be “Fed by the citizen collective” installed mid-January, and whose 35 members will meet for a new session from Thursday.
But nothing guarantees their concrete implementation, as recalled by Prof. Alain Fischer, president of the Orientation Council for the vaccine strategy: “Recommendation does not mean decision, political power retains all its freedom”.
