Gabriel Attal worrying: these comments on the 5th wave that foreshadow new difficult decisions – Close

Since several weeks, France, just like many countries in the world, has to deal with the fifth of the coronavirus. Guest of the Grand rendezvous on Europe 1, CNews and Les Échos, Sunday November 21, 2021, Gabriel Attal was not very reassuring in front of the latest contamination figures. “This 5th wave, it starts dazzlingly“, he thus launched based on facts: the number of daily cases has almost doubled in a week. An increase which is worrying. On the other hand, unlike some of our neighboring countries, the spokesperson of the government estimated that vaccination could limit hospitalizations. “We see that there is a very strong increase in contamination, but we also know that in France, we have a very wide vaccination coverage (and) we are rather ahead of our neighbors on the vaccination booster“, he again declared.

Moreover, according to him, the health pass is “weigh the constraints on unvaccinated people rather than on vaccinated people“. Thus, there is no question, for the moment, of stopping this device or even of reducing it. Moreover, in the event of a considerable increase in hospitalized people, the government could even be obliged to take other even more restrictive measures to limit the spread of the virus.
