President Macron has lost his mind..

I can understand certain measures being put in place which is needed understandably, but he just takes this way over the edge.

Even vaccinated tourists are balking at the new policies.

Viva la France I guess…🤷‍♂️

What measures? One must say Hello, Please, and Thank you in French? One must have a mistress or gay lover? What?

France just approved a vaccine green pass to go to restaurants, bars, theaters, etc. Massive protests against it.

We have the same policy in Ireland. To enter a pub or restaurant, you must present your EU Digital vaccine certificate.

If you want to participate in society - get vaccinated. Seems like the most logical way to contain the spread and save lives.

Nurses and care home workers who refuse to be vaccinated will lose their jobs.

What the fuck are you barking about OP? All he’s done is set up a framework whereby only vaccinated people are allowed to go to certain spaces like restaurants, cinemas, etc. This makes absolute sense and is replicated by an increasing number of countries.

If we want a return to a semblance of normalcy, imposing full vaccination is the only way forward. If you prefer endless lockdowns, that’s your choice, but don’t fucking try to force it down my throat. COVID is here to stay, we must learn to live with it and change our ways. How fucking difficult is this to understand?

He's right

by Anonymousreply 8July 28, 2021 12:37 PM

I'm glad to see this, in France, in Ireland, elsewhere.

When it's a personal choice whether to protect yourself and others, or not, it makes perfect sense that public venues are a luxury for those who have made the correct choice, for themselves and others. The staff who serve drinks at bars and take tickets at a theatre or a concert should not have to be placed further at risk than necessary. People who take the reasonable precautions should not have to endure the company of people who chose to take no precautions because they believe in witchcraft or Republicans or some celebrity with a deformed baby or some notion of individual rights.

I agree with you absolutely in regards of the protective measures for us vaccinated folks.

And what I’ve posted was enough to have a frank discussion about it from everyone’s thoughts that’s all. No link was needed for this discussion for the simple fact that what I’ve stated is absolutely real.. The sources are all over the web.

And another thing in reference to vaccinated tourists travelling abroad. Be prepared to wait. And expect unforeseen measures.

I say this because some tourist from the States were having issues with the their vaccine passport being accepted at some places of point of interest. I’m just saying be prepared. That’s all.

Thanks.

OP isn't a lazy whore. He's smart troll who wants to sow discord and ring the alarm bells - you know, because he's CONCERNED.

Raising the alarm over Macron "losing his mind" and "certain policies" (without naming them, of course), as well as "vaccinated tourists" or some other nebulous group being balking is all part of how idiots like OP raise the alarm and get the deplorables riled because deplorables don't have the mental capacity to think for themselves and simply listen to idiots when they scream their propaganda.

The U.S. does not have a coordinated healthcare system in place that would be able to confirm vaccination status for its citizens. I'm not sure what it would take to implement a vaccination confirmation database like what Europe has.

by Anonymousreply 23July 28, 2021 2:22 PM

R23: It doesn't seem so complicated.

I have an "EU digital Covid Certfiicate" certificate from the the province where I live in Spain, with dates, vaccine, type, my name, date of birth, a 30-or so character alphanumeric identifier, a QR code for scanning, in Spanish and English, with flag icons of my province, Spain, and the EU.

I saved a copy on my phone, or I can call it up from the app of my provincial health service.

The format varies slightly by country but it's recognizably the same set of information on each certificate.

R24 Yes I see your lay out there.

And it looks simple enough.

But I can assure you there will be mass reluctancy in adopting this type of platform nationwide.

Ideally I would like to see this implemented for the States but it’s going to be hell trying to implement this type of measure into practice for sure unfortunately.

I don’t think the States will implement this. I could be wrong but I’m not holding my breath.

I'm saying this as a French citizen, i'd rather have my QR code checked every time I go anywhere than have another national lockdown. Vaccinated people would not be pleased if we have to close up again.

Now if it turns out in six months another variant is vaccine-resistant that's another story...

This is like the war in France where they had the King and he was like "I'm OK with both Catholics and Protestants." But the Protestants got too big for their britches and hung notes all over Paris and even in the king's bedchamber saying that Catholics suck.

Then the king got pissed and had the Protestants murdered.

R28.. I agree with you. But why are the French notorious for vaccines hesitancy?

Even Luc Montagnier top virologie expressed his opposition which I was shocked to learn.

Especially since he lead to finding what the cause of AIDS was.

I was baffled by that for sure.

by Anonymousreply 33July 28, 2021 6:12 PM

Because the media keeps zooming on antivaxxers to make people angry in front of their TV and hate watch. When you have 100 000 people protesting the vaccination pass out of 65 million people it's all the news channels talk about as if it were a big event. Vaccines hesitancy is marginal.

France has 46% fully vaccinated people, US 49%. We're pretty much the same.

France and other European countries are paving the way. All will surely follow, as more and more people die and fall sick.

Health costs are climbing through the roof and will offset any business gains hoped for by lifting controls quickly.

Good to hear about something similar in Ireland, Paul@5.

Now that the CDC has confirmed that vaccinated people transmit as much, or more, than non-vaccinated, how do you all feel?

by Anonymousreply 57August 2, 2021 1:49 PM

It's a little more complicated than that, R57, since a vaccinated person is less susceptible to the virus in the first place, but yes, if they get it they can fully transmit it. We should just all keep being careful; I haven't stopped wearing masks indoors since my shots, and I'm avoiding being in crowds even outdoors. Not traveling by mass transit (planes, trains, etc.).

by Anonymousreply 58August 2, 2021 1:53 PM

R57 What separates the vaccinated from the unvaccinated is the severity of the disease and death rates. Transmissions be damned because that’s where we are as opposed to a perpetual state of hopelessness that was the year 2020.

So there are your facts.

Given how the Spanish flu operated, millions upon millions had died within a course of 11 years before the virus began to dissipate and manageable to live with.

The actual flu vaccine hadn’t arrived until the early 1940s.

Luckily for us we have vaccines for Covid so I’m hoping the turn around time for recovery will be a helluva a lot less than 11 years.

We shall see.
