Nationwide Protests Contest France's New Covid-19 Health Bill

MARSEILLE, FRANCE - AUGUST 07: A demonstrator holds up an anti-vac placard during a nationwide protest against France's new Covid-19 health pass on August 7, 2021 in Marseille, France. The newly adopted Covid-19 health pass law drew crowds of demonstrators in more than 180 cities across France. The new health bill makes inoculation against Covid-19 compulsory for health and medical staff, firefighters, and certain army personnel. The health pass; either a negative test, vaccination certificate or certificate of recovery from Covid-19, entered into force in July in places of culture of more than 50 people and has been extended to include cafes, restaurants and inter-city trains and planes.
