Novak Djokovic can come to Rome and play at the Italian Open. (File) The French National Assembly has approved the introduction of a new ‘Covid-19 Vaccine Pass,’ which came into effect on January 15. Essentially, the new rules declare that people aged 12 and above are no longer considered fully vaccinated if their last dose was received seven months ago. A ‘fully vaccinated’ person hereon will be considered as someone who has received a booster dose. Only such people will be allowed access to bars and restaurants, etc.
In addition, a negative Covid report or report declaring recent recovery from the virus will no longer be considered as proof of the holder being virus-free, as reported by Deutsche Welle. These changes were made by the Emmanuel Macron government to dissuade unvaccinated people from their anti-vax stance.
