Olivier Véran's latest adjustments concerning the extension of the health pass have not eased tensions, in particular with the nursing unions.
On the front of the evolution of the Covid-19 epidemic, hospital tension also continues to rise.
The increase in patients in intensive care and in hospital due to Covid-19 continues this Sunday.
The latest figures released show an increase in patients treated in hospital: 8,685 Covid-19 patients were hospitalized this Sunday evening, against 8,425 the day before.
