In his speech on Monday evening, the President of the Republic Emmanuel Macron announced that the health pass would be extended to cafes and restaurants from "early August".

If he does not say against compulsory vaccination, Roland, owner of a Parisian café, thinks that controlling his customers will be complicated. 

REPORTAGE

This is a new constraint that annoys restaurant owners, after a year marked by long months of closure due to the coronavirus epidemic.

On Monday, Emmanuel Macron announced that the health pass would be extended "in early August" to cafes and restaurants, including on the terrace.

An announcement freshly received by professionals in the sector, even if the customers seem ready.

Vaccination, health pass… What to remember from Emmanuel Macron's announcements

Met in the 15th arrondissement of Paris, Roland, the boss of Café Cambronne for 30 years, no longer really recognizes his profession.

"It's madness ... One has the impression of living in the unreal", he confides, having the impression of spending more time scrutinizing the masks on the nose than serving glasses.

In three weeks, he will also have to check the health pass of his customers. 

If vaccination is compulsory, that's a very good thing, now the problem is that everyone has to be checked, "he still regrets." Police all day, there are a little fed up. "

"I don't know how we're going to do it"

For him, this measure may especially be complicated to put in place in practice.

"I don't know at all how we're going to do it ... You don't have your pass, don't you eat with your girlfriend who has it? Are we going to do that?"

A point of view shared by other slightly annoyed bosses.

Outside, the terraces are crowded. Arthur, 21, is now fully vaccinated after receiving his second dose the day before. But Mégane, she had no intention of leaving. But now she may have to change her plans. "This means that I am going to be vaccinated when I do not want to do it because I want to continue to lead a normal life", she annoys. She therefore plans to take her first dose by the end of the month.
