Translation:Carlo Alberto Bursa:"I am not fighting just against the health pass, the battle that I have been fighting since March 2020, when the president confined us, has been (against) the mask, a battle that is still in dispute, it is also against that pseudo-drug that we call vaccine, which has genetically modified organisms, and of course the problem of the health pass, which is a sacralization of inequalities in our society and, finally, the battle against this type of dictatorship in which we live. " Valérie:I was forced to get the vaccine out of fear of losing my job, I think they’ve poisoned me.
