More than 1 million people in France have made appointments to get the coronavirus vaccine after French President Emmanuel Macron said COVID-19 passes would soon be needed for daily activities.
Doctolib, the centralized vaccine appointment app for the country, announced Tuesday that 1.3 million people in France signed up to get the coronavirus vaccine, The Associated Press reported. The majority of those who signed up were under 35 years old.
The surge in vaccination appointments comes after Macron said proof of a coronavirus vaccination, a negative COVID-19 test or recent recovery from the virus would be needed to go into restaurants and stores.
A COVID-19 pass would be needed to get on planes and trains as well.

Howe do I know? I couldn't sign up here in NM. The site had a fucking CAPTCHA, and I'm sight handicapped.

(633 posts)Curious about the reaction of their residents. I bet there won't be the whining, the feet stomping, the curse words hurling, and physical aggression that we would probably have here if passports were to become mandatory here! I bet they just don't have as many crybabies over there as we do!!
I guess we ARE seeing their reaction....1 more million people signed up!
