The date of January 5 mentioned by Gad Elmaleh refers to the day of the last health defense council.

"update on the situation"

organized in the wake of the health defense council.

Last Wednesday turned out to be at the heart of a week “to shit” for the majority, between suspension of the examination of the bill on the vaccine pass in the assembly and the thunderous statements of the president.

The update on the announcements never arrived, provoking the ire of Gad Elmaleh.

"May our spirits be appeased"

The latter took advantage of his interview with RTL to criticize measures targeting theaters that he considers

“unfair”

.

It has not been proven that there is more contamination in theaters.

There are tests that have been done.

We did 70 shows in big venues and there was never a problem

, says the comedian.

We have proven that there are no clusters in theaters.

We haven't proven, and we should, that in theaters something good is happening for our souls and hearts.
