The French government is working on a COVID-19 health pass, its spokesman Gabriel Attal told reporters on March 10 after a cabinet meeting.
"Each minister has been in extensive contact with his or her sector, with their sector of activity for which he is responsible for the government to work on the implementation of this health pass," said Attal.
Such a pass is seen as one way of being able to open up the economy again – as people would be able to show that they have had a COVID-19 vaccination before going into a restaurant or a theater, for example.
