Like Pandora's box, the question of the Covid certificate, once opened, unleashes a multitude of complex themes that question our relationship to authority. It also reveals that modern thinking has yet to mature with regard to the difficult question of the dividing line between the public and private spheres, which 19th-century liberals had highlighted in their writings. By way of example, the media and the general public talk about the majority and the minority, without realizing that the latter is actually threatened in this new episode of the Covid certificate in the pandemic soap opera. Indeed, non-vaccinators will soon be considered persona non grata in the public arena, which is reminiscent of the mechanisms of social stigmatization, particularly tragic in the case of the Covid certificate.
