The mayor (LR) of Nice calls for the expansion of vaccination to all workers, in order to encourage the resumption of economic activity.


To ensure the resumption of economic activity, the mayor (LR) of Nice calls for the vaccination of all working people, regardless of age, as well as a stimulus plan based on SMEs.

How do you judge the current vaccination campaign?

Is it going fast enough to allow the resumption of life?

CHRISTIAN ESTROSI.

We are going to deconfin, and in this situation, it is important to open the vaccination to all workers, regardless of age.

We must vaccinate those who will allow the activity to resume, in administrations, businesses, public services, cultural activities.

If we want to revive culture, we must allow artists, musicians, directors of the entertainment world to be protected.

Can not changing the vaccination strategy halt the recovery?

Take the world of hotels and restaurants: we will have difficulty recruiting staff if we do not guarantee them that we will protect them through vaccination.

Ditto for small businesses, supermarket cashiers.

Massive acceleration of vaccination is the only solution for an efficient and rapid exit from the crisis.

But do we have enough vaccines?

The Johnson and Johnson arrive, the Sputnik is under consideration.

We must stop denigrating AstraZeneca, when we have a large number of doses.

Communities have immense logistics that allow mass vaccination.

Is this the only way to encourage economic recovery?

The government has provided considerable economic aid and we should be happy about it, but it will stop.

There is a major risk of a sharp rise in unemployment which may be lasting.

We must do everything possible to avoid an economic and social crisis, by running a vaccination against unemployment, a Marshall Plan to allow local SMEs to become mid-size companies.

Let us take advantage of the recovery plan to support them, save our jobs and prepare those of tomorrow.

After this long sanitary winter, we need a spring for SMEs.

Can SMEs be the engine of recovery on their own?

They are at the heart of our economy, which is what can allow France to have a lasting recovery.

But we will also have to support our smallest businesses, help them with favorable taxation and administrative facilities.

Do you find the government too slow, or on the contrary too fast in terms of deconfinement?

Today, caution must be exercised and the government acts according to the indicators at its disposal.

But it must give prospects to the territories whose health situation is consolidated, to be able to be deconfined before the others.

It is more advantageous for France that territories can gradually emerge from this situation.

It is a share of deficit less that we dig!
