After the Advisory Committee on Ethics, the French National Authority for Health (HAS) has just given its green light to the vaccination of children aged 5 to 11, but without obligation. Still happy!
“It is not acceptable that the refusal of a few million French people to be vaccinated puts at risk the life of a whole country!” stressed the Prime Minister to justify the new restrictions aimed at containing the epidemic of Covid-19.
Despite mass vaccination the fifth wave of the Covid-19 epidemic continues to rise with 61,340 new cases in 24 hours. Prof. Jean-François Delfraissy mentions a possible 4ᵉ dose of vaccination.
The SARS-CoV-2 epidemic seems to be resuming in France, which has recorded 47,177 additional cases in the last 24 hours, according to Santé Publique France, and 10,249 people are currently hospitalized.
The health pass will be deactivated, as of January 15, 2022, for French people who do not have the third dose. As for the screening tests, they will have to be paid for and will only be valid for 24 hours. This is the concept of “freedom” according to the Minister of Health.
Although doubly vaccinated, the Prime Minister was declared positive to the Covid, this Monday, November 22, 2021. It will now be difficult for him to defend the mandatory vaccination against the epidemic.
Two scientists, Dr. Jean-Marc Sabatier and Prof. Jacques Fantini*, explain why the third vaccine dose can have serious long-term side effects due to the “ADE” phenomenon (Antibody-dependent enhancement: facilitation of infection by antibodies). The benefit/risk ratio would be unfavorable. Explanations
Will the anti-Covid-19 vaccines drive people crazy? To the point that the vaccinated would no longer support those who preferred not to be vaccinated? Some examples of discrimination that remind us of the religious wars.
Dr. Jean Stevens, a retired cardiologist who practiced in Caussade, in the Tarn-et-Garonne region, has sent an open letter to the presidents of the French Medical Association (Ordre des Médecins) in which he questions their astonishing silence on the ethical level. He explains.
The current epidemiological situation and the performance of the COVID-19 vaccine do not justify a generalized vaccination obligation. An in-depth debate for vaccine adherence, restoration of trust and constructive exchanges are crucial to help overcome the crisis.
Why does the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, refuse to reveal the content of her exchanges with the head of Pfizer for the purchase of vaccines? An investigation has been opened.
