France's daily increase in covid-19 infections exceeds 330,000 Macron pressures unvaccinated people

On the 5th local time, France added 332252 new cases of new coronavirus patients within 24 hours, once again breaking the record of the highest number of daily infections since the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, so that the cumulative number of new crown patients exceeded 10.92 million. According to Le Parisien, in the face of the increasingly severe epidemic situation in France, French President Emmanuel Macron sternly criticized those who have not yet been vaccinated against the new crown in his exchange with the readers of Le Parisien. Macron admitted that the government will take the new crown vaccine as the leading measure to fight the epidemic, which is also the original intention of the "vaccine pass" expected to be implemented from the 15th. More than 90 per cent of France's eligible covid-19 vaccination population has been vaccinated, and he hopes to use the "vaccine pass" to pressure people who have not yet been vaccinated against COVID-19 to limit the participation of this small group of "non-civic responsibility" people in social activities as much as possible, so as to encourage them to be vaccinated.

Macron criticized that it is irresponsible when personal freedom threatens others, and that these irresponsible people (those who refuse to be vaccinated against COVID-19) are "no longer French citizens", "I will not put them in prison, I will not force them to be vaccinated, but must be told: from January 15, you will not be able to go to restaurants, you will not be able to go to cafes for a drink, you will not be able to go to theaters, you will not be able to go to cinemas again." Macron's tough stance on unvaccinated people has sparked huge controversy in French politics, leading to another interruption in the debate in the National Assembly on the "vaccine pass" bill. But Prime Minister Jean Castet defended on the 5th that he believed the president's words "reflected the thinking of the vast majority of French" and called for "taking responsibility for our citizens".

French government spokesman Gabriel Attar also responded on the 5th that those who oppose the new crown vaccine are destroying the lives of the French people, the government has prepared the "vaccine pass" bill, most of the parliamentarians support this bill, through the bill to put pressure on people who have not yet been vaccinated, in line with the expectations of most French people.
