LIVE: Yellow Vests gather in Paris to protest against COVID measures and economic policies

Ruptly is live from Paris on Saturday, January 29, as the Yellow Vests take to the streets to demonstrate against COVID-19 restrictions including vaccination requirements and French President Emmanuel Macron’s economic policies. Recently, the French parliament approved a change of the former health pass, converting it into a ’vaccine pass’ for those over 16 years old. The system will exclude access of unvaccinated people from leisure activities, restaurants, sports arenas, fairs and other venues. Protesters are also calling to demonstrate for economic and fiscal justice, and against pension and unemployment reforms.
