Survive the epidemic with a super vaccine – 4th coronavirus vaccination is coming in Hungary
The French Senate passed a bill on a vaccination certificate to replace the protection certificate against the coronavirus on Wednesday evenings
The final version of the proposal will be decided by the two houses of parliament expected on Thursday. If no compromise solution is found, the text is returned to the National Assembly for a second reading.
The right-wing opposition-majority House passed the text with 242 votes against, 69 against and 31 abstentions, which the National Assembly voted in its first reading last week.
Senators have included in the text that the vaccination certificate will surely be removed as soon as the number of infected people cared for in the hospital drops below 10,000. There are currently 24,000 in hospital.
The draft, adopted by the nation, requires the use of the certificate from the age of 12, but would be mandatory at school events only from the age of 16, but senators have decided it will only take effect from the age of 18; used so far. proof of protection must be presented in public places.
The document certifying protection against the virus (vaccination certificate or negative test not older than 24 hours) is currently required to be presented in public places receiving at least 50 people, including terraces, trains and buses, sports facilities, hospitals and in cultural institutions, cinemas, theaters, concert halls. Under the bill, only three vaccines will be allowed to enter these places freely in the future, those with one or two doses of vaccine will have to pass a negative test in addition to their vaccination certificate, and those who are not vaccinated will not be able to use the services.
In France, the epidemic is currently on the rise due to the omicron variant, which is responsible for almost three-quarters of new infections. The daily number of cases struck another record on Tuesday with 368,000 cases uncovered, on Wednesday 361,000 new infections, but health minister Olivier Véran on France Info on Wednesday believes the actual daily number of cases could be between half and one million. According to the head of the ministry, the fifth wave is now peaking in terms of the number of cases, and the number of cases detected per day will soon decrease.
Hospitals are caring for 24,000 people compared to 20,000 last week, 4,000 of whom are in the intensive care unit, but a significant proportion of the latter are still infected with the delta variant, according to health authorities. It was also pointed out that nurses infected with the omicron variant need hospital care for a shorter period of time than patients infected with the delta variant. In the complications of Covid-19, 126,000 were killed.
Primary school workers, meanwhile, have announced a strike warning Thursday of new epidemiological measures being introduced in primary schools, which they say are impossible to implement. The main union, SNUipp-FSU, says three-quarters of teachers will be out of work and half of the schools will not open.
On Monday at four, a student’s coronavirus test in a class must be positive, it is not necessary to close the class, but the class student must take a self-test during the day under the supervision of the three parents. The tests are free, but parents must inform the school in writing of the results. In case of positive results, it is the responsibility of the schools to organize additional screenings (PCR or antigen tests) for the students.
According to SNUipp-FSU, the new rules not simply do not protect students, workers and their families, but create even more chaos in schools where “in the current circumstances, students cannot learn properly, a hybrid system between attendance and distance learning. impossible to achieve “. The communication also drew attention to the fact that the fact that there are not enough substitute teachers to replace those who have stayed at home due to illness also creates an unsustainable situation.
Prime Minister Jean Castex said in the National Assembly on Tuesday that two per cent of primary school classes, 10,400 classes, are closed because more pupils are infected. And Jean-Michel Blanquer, the education minister, said 50,000 of the 12 million students are currently infected.
