If I understand this correctly, France's parliament is debating mandatory vaccination. As in, everyone is forced to get vaccinated. No exceptions.

@pete
Yes. That’s the gist of the proposal.
But they do mention medical exemption.
I expect the medical exemption process to be almost impossible to navigate, given historical precedent.
@lucash_dev sorry, by "no exceptions" I meant everyone would be required to comply regardless of what lifestyle they lead. Bad wording on my part.
@pete at what point do these people stop and wonder if they’re the nazis this time.
It’s stunning how tone deaf this all is.
@pete And this is the proof that peaceful protests don't work.
@pete Yes, your reading is correct. But it's only a bill proposal introduced by the leader of the socialist party which doesn't have majority in the Senate.
Just like in the US, any member or group of the chamber can pretty much propose a bill that will be read and voted on. Often they are proposed as a political move even if they have 0 chance to be voted into law.
Currently the Senate is controlled (majority) by the Republican group, the Socialist group has no chance of getting such a law across.
It doesn't mean it won't happen, just that it won't be that specific bill. The opposite groups won't give them the clout of voting in their version of the law.
In short, it's like AOC's proposal to ban airplanes and farting cows. It's political noise.
