Covid-19: Emmanuel Macron will hold a health defense council – South West on Monday

Emmanuel Macron will hold a health defense council dedicated to Covid-19 on Monday, just before the Council of Ministers which must adopt the bill transforming the health pass into a vaccination pass, announced the Élysée on Friday.

The President of the Republic must participate by videoconference in the health defense council which is scheduled for 4 p.m., one hour before the Council of Ministers, said the Elysee. Government spokesman Gabriel Attal said on Wednesday that a “reassessment of the health situation” was scheduled for that date, while the arrival of the Omicron variant is causing contamination figures to panic across Europe.
