He said in particular that all people over the age of 18 will have to justify on their health pass “from January 15” having received a booster dose at most seven months after the previous one. The validity period of negative Covid-19 tests giving entitlement to the health pass will also be reduced to 24 hours. France is facing a fifth wave of the Coronavirus disease.
