Vaccine "travel pass" and French trial over data protection risks

This week on EURACTIV’s Yellow, we are talking about the proposed vaccine “travel pass” and the controversy around it. EU countries, whose economies depend on tourism, seem to be eager to adopt the proposed solution, while others are more skeptical about it. To shed some light on these concerns we are joined by EURACTIV’S transport editor Sean Goulding Carroll. We are also dissecting the reason why the French health ministry is going to court and the controversy over the data protection regulations that seem to be challenged by the use of a health app. To break down the background story of the upcoming trial, we spoke with EURACTIV’s France, Mathieu Pollet.
