As France is taking over the third wave a four-step lockdown exit scheme has been initiated, enabling to progressively lift restrictions until the summer starts. At the same time, the vaccination campaign improves and opens more and more to people. From June 15, 2021 any French over 18 years of age is eligible for vaccination.
In the meantime, the share of the population vaccinated increases and French people concerned are therefore tempted to ditch facemasks and health guidelines. A debate is raised: should restrictions be eased to people vaccinated? This is a stance committed in other counties. More recently, in Germany, a draft bill aiming at enabling people vaccinated or enjoying natural immunity to depart from some restrictions such as curfew, mandatory tests, or contact restrictions.
In France, the matter is studied by the government. In the meantime, starting from June 9, 2021, a health pass is to be instated to access events implying big gatherings. But the health pass is not only reserved for people vaccinated: other criteria enable to have it as well.
