“The Repeal of Anti-Covid Vaccine Mandate: Epidemiologist Criticizes Political Ignorance in Public Health”

A setback for the government. The deputies adopted, this Thursday, May 4, a bill to repeal, and not just suspend, the anti-Covid vaccination obligation for caregivers. On RTL, epidemiologist Dominique Costagliola reacted to this vote. “I’m not surprised but this vote just shows that these political parties understand nothing about public health. It is rather worrying”, thinks the epidemiologist.

The deputies of the National Rally, the Republicans and the elected representatives of the left voted for this text at first reading. “Conspiracy trumped science“, lamented the Minister of Health François Braun in reaction to the adoption of this bill. This reinstatement should be carried out at the to me.

“The reason these caregivers refused to be vaccinated is because that they did not ultimately believe in the interest of this vaccine. Having caregivers who do not believe in the way we establish a certain number of things in science is a little worrying for patients”, thinks Dominique Costagliola.

The High Authority for Health (HAS) had recommended to “lift the vaccination requirement“against the Covid in force for 18 months for caregivers and other professionals concerned at the end of March. “I’m not convinced that the solution was to reintegrate them“, insists the epidemiologist.
