The Govern Frenchman, who ten days ago had pointed out that Novak Djokovic could take part in the tournament Roland Garros even if it is not vaccinated, it has rectified and warns that all those who compete must have the complete guideline, just as it will be required of the public and the professionals involved. The rectification came from the hand of the Minister ofsports, Roxana Maracineanu, on the night of Sunday to Monday, hours after the Parliament finally adopted the bill that will impose a vaccination certificate for many activities of social life, which includes attending sports shows. In a message on your account Twitter, Maracineanu stated that this health certificate has been adopted, so that “once the law is enacted, it will be mandatory to enter the spaces already subject to the health passport (stadiums, theaters or halls) for all spectators, practitioners, professionals, French or foreign ”. The Minister took the opportunity to thank the sports movement for its action of “convincing the last and few unvaccinated” and insisted that they both now intend to work together to “preserve the competitions” and promote the vaccination passport “at scale international ”.
Refusal to vaccinate
It had been Maracineanu herself who on January 7, in the midst of political and judicial contention in Australia due to Djokovic’s presence despite his refusal to be vaccinated, he had indicated that the Serb could participate in the Roland Garros, scheduled for late May and early June. The French head of sports then argued that France it would apply an exception to the obligation of the vaccination certificate to athletes in international competitions, so that the new French regulations would not apply to them and they could compete even without being immunized. He justified this by arguing that international competitions are governed by the “mandatory protocols imposed by the federations” which, he said, would be above French law.
complete agenda
It should be noted that, unlike in Australia, it is not necessary to have a complete vaccination schedule in order to enter France. You can arrive in the country with a health passport that proves you have a negative test instead. Despite this, the draft law on the vaccination certificate, which is due to enter into force at the end of this week, is still pending before the Constitutional Council) will force you to have a drink in a bar or restaurant, to go to the cinema, a show or a stadium, but also to use long-distance public transport (buses, trains, planes or boats).
