The Constitutional Council validated Monday May 11 the law extending the state of health emergency and organizing the deconfinement, but censored elements related to the isolation of the patients and the "tracing" of their contacts, in a decision taken Monday.

The Council, seized by the president Emmanuel Macron, the president of the Senate Gérard Larcher and other parliamentarians, "validates several" of the provisions of the law, adopted Saturday by the Parliament.

But "concerning the processing of personal data of a medical nature for the purposes of 'tracing'", he decided "two partial censures" to limit the number of people who can access this data, and so that a liberty judge can carry out a "check" if the patient cannot leave his place of isolation for more than twelve hours.
