After Emmanuel Macron spoke last night, government spokesman Gabriel Attal confirmed this Wednesday morning on France Info that from December 15, the health pass for over 65s would be deactivated for lack of a third dose of Covid-19 vaccine six months and five weeks after the second injection. “Thanks to vaccination, we have built a wall against serious forms. This wall must not crack, ”he insisted.
According to Gabriel Attal, the third dose will also be easily accessible to over 50s from the beginning of December. As a reminder, the Health Defense Council met on Tuesday morning to think about the best way to push the French currently eligible for a third dose – over 65 years old, caregivers, obese, victims of comorbidities – to take the plunge. As the number of daily cases rises, the executive hopes, via the vaccine booster, to avoid a new wave, all the more feared that a more contagious variant is spreading in the United Kingdom. And only 3.4 million of the 7.7 million eligible people were revaccinated.
