The government in France has announced that citizens will be required to show their Covid-19 vaccination card or a QR barcode that shows they tested negative within the previous 72 hours or recovered recently from Covid-19.
Police have stopped people in public parks, on public transportation, and even while eating at restaurants across the country.
French police have started checking covid passes for people having drinks on the terrace of restaurants (yeah, outside too 😂). This shit show never stops on giving. pic.twitter.com/J62jvo5AHA

According to officials, anyone who violates the new totalitarian law faces a €135 fine or $158 in USD, and three fraudulent uses of a health pass in one month can result in six months in prison and a €3,750 fine or $4,394 in USD.
Restaurant and other establishment owners who fail to check health passes more than three times in a 45-day period face a year in prison and a €9,000 ($10,566.58) fine.
Visitors and patients with appointments in hospitals must have the pass. However, exceptions are made for patients in the emergency department.
So far, over 36 million people in France, or more than 54 percent of the population, are fully vaccinated.
The measure is part of a government plan to encourage more people to get vaccinated against COVID-19 and allay fears about the emerging Delta variant, which is now responsible for the majority of cases in France.
So far, social media videos have circulated showing a police task force of 5-6 officers going from business to business, demanding medical health information from customers.

Thousands of people took to the streets of French cities in July and August to protest the implementation of a mandatory Covid-19 health pass for the general public and mandatory vaccination for certain groups of people. Despite protest marches on four consecutive Saturdays, President Emmanuel Macron has maintained his strategy.
The heinous scenes in France are reminiscent of Germany’s era during the rise of Hitler and the Nazi Party when his task force would break into houses to take and sometimes murder those deemed unworthy by the state. Ironically, one protester was arrested after making a poster that depicted President Emmanuel Macron as Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.
Amazing how many people had to die to liberate France from Nazi Germany
Then they voluntarily revive Hitler's regime on their own https://t.co/rHElOHmkqO

Undoubtedly, what began as a new virus emerging from Wuhan over a year ago has changed the way the world functions and has demoralized all human compassion.
