Unvaccinated police without valid QR codes to check health passes in France

Unlike caregivers, police officers are not subject to compulsory vaccination in France. In addition, they can check QR codes at the entrance to places of recreation without having one themselves.

Published: July 23, 2021, 12:48 pm

    On Wednesday, July 21, the health pass became compulsory at the cinema, at the museum and in sports establishments. From the beginning of August, it will be extended to cafes, restaurants and trains.

    The bill, adopted by the Council of Ministers on July 19 and currently being debated, provides for the establishment of controls which will be carried out not only by the heads of the establishments concerned, but also by the police.

    However, for the moment, the police are not subject to the vaccination obligation or even obliged to have a valid QR code to carry out health pass checks.

    Indeed, the Interior Ministry questioned by Le Parisien following the harsh restrictions of Emmanuel Macron indicated that the police and gendarmes were not among the professions subject to this obligation. It is the caregivers, firefighters, professionals working in care facilities who will have to be vaccinated no later than September 15 at the risk of being severely punished.

    In addition, questioned by Liberation on July 20, the Ministry of the Interior specified that checks in public spaces “will be carried out at the exit of establishments if necessary”. Thus a police officer will be able to demand documents from visitors to a museum without having his or her own health pass.

    From July 9, the QR code entered into force in nightclubs, and in this case the police will also carry out their inspections. The day after the President’s announcements on the compulsory vaccination of caregivers, police officers expressed their incomprehension regarding the exemption of the police.

    “We are very much in contact with the population on a daily basis. And we don’t just see healthy people and not just people without risk. The homeless in the street, drug addicts in the north of Paris, ordinary people who sometimes do not hesitate to spit in our faces […] So for us, it’s incomprehensible,” a Paris police official told LCI on July 13.

    2. Vax hysteria is a product of a civilization in collapse. As the West dies, people cope with their anxiety by becoming more and more militantly pro-gay, pro-BLM, pro-vax, etc. Everyone must be continually vaxxed from cradle to grave with “booster shots.” Anyone who questions this must be destroyed.

    3. It’s not only France. In every nation that has vax mania, the police are not required to be vaxxed. The reason for this is that governments need their police forces to stay healthy so they can enforce vax dictates.

    4. They will continue to take our freedoms until we stop them literally stop them.. Enough is enough idc what side you’re on this is straight medical tyranny….

      If the “vaccine” is so great why are you worried about the unvaccinated..

      It’s all about power and control need more proof

      Look at the top ten richest people in the world before and after the Plandemic.. For example before the Plandemic Jeff Bezos was worth between 50-60 billion today he’s worth over 200 billion..

    5. How is France moving ahead with this rather than the EU governing authority? After all, the EU regulates the smallest detail of EU life, down to the amount of fat allowed/required in Mayonnaise.

    6. It’s never been about a virus. The virus was simply a pretext to get everyone on a pass system for participating in everyday life. Once people are issued passes, the authorities can start putting limits on how often people can go places, buy certain things, etc.

      It is sophisticated life-rationing on a global scale.

    7. Once the medical establishment shunned Ivermectin & HCQ their credibility was gone. And not even caring about having natural immunity from contracting & recovering from COVID makes them look like modern day witch doctors. It’s a terrible thing to lose all credibility in your medical industry. It will hurt everyone.

    8. This gave them the opportunity to rig the American election and usher in the collapse of western civ. Done by 2030. We have been fools for allowing the takeover of our culture over the last century.

    11. Vaccination will eventually kill or debilitate. They can’t lose their enforcers to that.
