Would the opponents of the health pass have found significant industrial support to fight against this health measure intended to limit the spread of Covid-19? On social networks, many Internet users in any case praise the decision which would have been taken by “the Fnac-Darty group”.

” [Le groupe] throws in the towel concerning its control at the entrance of its stores! Message to customers: “We welcome you without a health pass!” Stop the destruction of our economy ”, thus welcomes a tweetoriginally published on August 28 by a national delegate from Debout la France (DLF), the party of Nicolas Dupont-Aignan, and since taken over in the form of a screenshot by many Internet users.
This suggests, wrongly, that the Fnac stores have decided to no longer require the health pass from their customers… even though it has never been checked by the brand.
FAKE OFF
“There is confusion: there is no obligation to control health passes in stores. [Fnac], except in the few shopping centers concerned, where this control is carried out by the shopping center itself and not by the stores ”, confirms to 20 minutes the Fnac-Darty group.
Since August 9, 2021, the health pass is in fact only required in shopping centers of more than 20,000 square meters “by reasoned decision of the prefect, when the seriousness of the risk of contamination justifies it and public access to public transport infrastructure and basic necessities in the catchment area is guaranteed ”, as recalled by the website of the Ministry of the Economy.
Only Fnac stores installed in a shopping center in this case – the list of which will be further reduced from September 8 – are therefore concerned.
Internet users’ confusion about the alleged “resistance” of the Fnac-Darty group to this government measure undoubtedly stems from the fact that various Fnac brands sent an email to their customers in August to inform them that they could continue to trade. go there without a health pass, as reported multiple Twitter users.
