The health pass has entered into force in certain public places and is gradually becoming the daily life of the French.
But its use has not yet become a reflex for everyone.
This is particularly the case at Lille zoo, where visitors sometimes forget that they have to present it and are forced to turn around.
REPORTAGE
The French must now learn to live with the health pass.
This device is indeed obligatory in certain public places of culture and leisures but its use is not yet a reflex for all.
At the Lille zoo, visitors find it difficult to understand that it is now necessary.
Some, to avoid having to carry out a test or to be vaccinated, even carry out false passes thanks to applications.

"Until the second dose, I can't do anything"
Patrice and Michèle, their eyes riveted on their phones in front of the park entrance, are unable to find the famous Grail. "I am looking for my health pass but I did not load it on my cell phone", explains Michèle. "We take our grandchildren to the zoo, but we can't go back," adds her husband after having walked three and a half kilometers for nothing. However, they are vaccinated and have received the two doses and the seven days of protection that follow.
A few meters away, Akermi, rather angry, must also turn around.
"I have the first dose of vaccine but I can't go home. I have to wait until August for the second dose. So until then I can't do anything at all with the children, nor go to the swimming pool, neither to the zoo or to the amusement park. What are we going to do? ”wonders the mother of the family who does not take offense.
The only solution, in fact, is the antigen test.
Some visitors will also do one at the pharmacy before entering.

Fake QR code
Others don't bother with this formality and clearly cheat, as one of the zoo's security guards explains. "There are social media apps where you pay 200 euros and they give you a fake QR code. Then they change an ID with the fake first and last name for the scan to be correct. And it goes." , he assures. This vigil believes that he can do nothing against these fakes, because he is not empowered. And this even if he sees that the identity document has been altered. Despite everything, the phenomenon is still marginal: he has only seen it four times here at the zoo.
