At the end of 42 control measures and eighteen months of epidemics, CNIL calls on the government to provide guarantees on the definitive effectiveness of the Health Pass.
Despite these numerous checks and the three comments previously issued, CNIL points to a lack of evidence.
“CNIL insists that components that make it possible to evaluate the effectiveness of the above therapies in order to continue its work should be sent as soon as possible. In fact, despite many requests, no such assessment has been made to date. Asks the Commission. His opinion.
Performance of the pass in question
