“We are exasperated by this inability to foresee, to organize in advance and this mania to do everything at the last moment in the crush and haste”, declared the deputy of Bouches-du-Rhône. “You have sown indescribable chaos because of your carelessness”, he added, taking as a recent example the publication the day before the start of a new school health protocol.

“We were against the health pass, here we are against the vaccine pass because it is 100% ineffective. 91% of the eligible population is vaccinated and you are making it a claim to fame”, continued Jean-Luc Mélenchon. “Let’s admit, but what’s the point, if immediately there are 500,000 contaminations per day?”

Maybe you are aiming to catch the attention of part of the protesting population. “– Olivier Véran to Jean-Luc Mélenchon

The Minister of Health Olivier Véran then wished to remind the rebellious of his changes of position during the crisis. “In the past, you were so wrong that it is difficult today to give you the same attention when you speak up. You compared the mRNA vaccine to frozen food sold in supermarkets, you mentioned this Pfizer thing. that you would never receive – I believe that you received your 3rd dose of Pfize mister the deputy “said Olivier Véran before continuing his list of examples.

“Unless your intention, mister the deputy, is not sanitary. Perhaps you aim at attracting a little the attention of a part of the protesting population which does not want the vaccine, which does not want of the past. And perhaps you call them to join you under your banner. You are not the only one to wave this banner: there are Madame le Pen, Monsieur Dupont-Aignan, Monsieur Philippot who are on the same niche. to go flatter those who are afraid “, continued the minister. “You claim to be one day President of the Republic, well you are taking an example from two very bad presidents, the only ones who have refused all measures of restrictions, of health management since the start of the pandemic: Mr. Bolsonaro in Brazil , and Trump in the United States. “
