Question 8514 — defense

Summary

Mr. Robert Le Bourgeois draws the attention of the Minister of the Armed Forces to the vaccination obligation against covid-19 in the armed forces, subject not to the law of August 5, 2021 but governed by ministerial instruction No. 509040/ARM/DCSSA/ESSD of July 29, 2021 then No. 514870/ARM/DCSSA/SDD of October 13, 2023. This vaccination thus remains obligatory for any soldier “planned on an external operation or on an operational mission abroad; affected or sent on temporary service to the French Southern and Antarctic Lands; assigned or placed for employment on a vessel of the national navy, with the exception of vessels carrying out exclusively port or coastal missions, the list of which is established by the competent employment authority; assigned to a permanent position abroad in a country presenting a higher health risk than in mainland France; designated under the national emergency level, or any operational posture that could lead to engagement abroad.” In its opinion of March 30, 2023, the High Authority for Health recommended lifting the covid-19 vaccination obligation for health professionals. The vaccination obligation has been lifted by decree since May 15, 2023. He would like to know if the Government is considering withdrawing this vaccination obligation which falls on staff armies – civilians and soldiers alike – and reservists.
