Comment: Since the number in attendance is based on a statement from the Interior Ministry, we can be confident that the protests, now in their 4th consecutive week, were likely orders of magnitude larger. Based on organisers information and the footage coming out of even the smallest towns, some locals guesstimate that the number of protesters on Saturday was well over 2 million.
Some 237,000 people took to the streets in Paris and other French cities to protest against mandatory COVID-19 vaccination for the medical staff and sanitary passes, according to the news. The most numerous of the rallies, with about 17,000 participants, began at the Pont de Neuilly subway station in Paris after 13:00 local time (11:00 GMT).













Comment: Even though the Interior Ministry admits attendance numbers are growing with each week, the protesters are still largely being ignored by the establishment and misrepresented by the media (as was the case with the Europe-wide Yellow Vest movement) but, this Monday, firefighter and nurse unions intend to go on strike, declaring the mandatory vaccines and IDs to be "unconstitutional", which is likely to draw more attention to the issue.
