Emmanuel Macron’s speech: what could the President of the Republic announce? – Franceinfo

Before Emmanuel Macron’s speech, scheduled for Tuesday, November 9 at 8 p.m., a new Health Defense Council was held in the morning. “The president could well condition the health pass to the obligation of a third dose for those over 65 years old. People suffering from comorbidities would not be affected by this obligation, because it would imply the lifting of medical confidentiality “, reports, from the Elysee (Paris), the journalist Valérie Astruc.

The reporter continued: “On the other hand, there is no question of extending this obligation to nursing staff.“ Emmanuel Macron should also take advantage of his speech to make some announcements “surprises”, on “the importance of work in our lives, according to the Élysée. Which opens up two avenues: the extension of working hours, in other words the pension reform ” and tackling labor shortages, with, perhaps, the thorny subject of wage hikes that could be put on the table.
