Huit médecins généralistes sur 10 considèrent que la vaccination est le meilleur moyen pour éviter la survenue de nouvelles vagues épidémiques de Covid-19. 8 médecins sur 10 estiment également qu’ils ont un rôle à jouer dans la vaccination de la population contre la Covid-19 et plus de la moitié sont favorables à une obligation de vaccination pour les professionnels de santé. Globalement, les trois quarts des médecins accepteraient a priori de se faire vacciner contre la Covid-19 et de le recommander à leurs patients.

The True Price of CO₂

In 2024, a grim record was set: it was the hottest year ever recorded on Earth. The signs of climate upheaval are now visible to all, as global warming manifests itself in a rapid rise in extreme weather events. In theory, the solution is straightforward: we must stop burning fossil fuels. In practice, phasing out energy sources so firmly entrenched in contemporary societies is an immense challenge. To reduce CO₂ emissions, economists — trained in cost–benefit analysis — can help policymakers design strategies that are both effective and socially acceptable.
