What will remain of the health crisis in a few years?
While the toll will increase to 100,000 dead in France, the environmentalist deputy, ex-LREM, Matthieu Orphelin offers a day in tribute to the victims of the Covid.
As reported by
L'Express on
Tuesday, April 6, the elected official has already drafted his bill.

Orphan promises a "very quick" examination
In the reasons supporting his proposal, Matthieu Orphelin underlines that
"in any civilization, when someone has died, you have to take time, a moment when you stop, when you reflect and talk about him"
.
However, recalls the elected,
"for a year, the burials have taken place in near clandestinity given the sanitary conditions, with just a few people present to say goodbye to the deceased"
.
“A year later, the epidemic is still there.
The nation must pay tribute to these victims ”
, judged the former Macronist deputy, today head of the list supported by EELV for the regional ones in the Pays-de-la-Loire.
Now an unregistered member, after having formed a new ephemeral group last fall, Matthieu Orphelin cannot, however, put his text on the agenda.
The elected representative therefore relies on the goodwill of the executive.
"There is no doubt that this bill will achieve consensus in the National Assembly as in the Senate"
, he judges.
“Its examination in committee and in session would be very fast, the affair of a few hours.
It is therefore up to the government and to the majority to include this text on the agenda of parliamentary debates as quickly as possible, ”he
asks.
The message got through.
