France now requires virus pass for 2m workers

Some two million French workers in restaurants and other service jobs must now show a health pass to go to work, as part of government virus-fighting efforts, AP reports.

The public is already required to show the pass to go to French restaurants, tourist sites and many other public venues.

Starting Monday, all staff members must also show the pass, which requires proof of vaccination, a fresh negative virus test or recovery from Covid-19. Those who don’t risk suspension or other punishment, and businesses that don’t comply face potential fines.
