In France, the general quarantine will come back into force on Fridays to curb the growing spread of the coronavirus epidemic: the ban on leaving everyone will be applied, shops and non-essential service units will be closed. University education will continue online, but kindergartens, kindergartens, schools and secondary schools will remain open, Emmanuel Macron announced.
The French president said in a live televised speech Wednesday night that the restrictions would remain in effect until at least Dec. 1.
Emmanuel Macron highlighted, writes the MTI, that if the government does not reintroduce strict access restrictions, up to 400,000 people could die from a coronavirus infection in a few months.
France would never opt for a strategy based on patient selection, as the main victims of the pandemic are the elderly.
he said.
The president announced that commuting would be allowed, but again, working from home would be preferred.
However, despite the restrictions, visits to nursing homes are not prohibited. The number of hospital intensive care units will increase from the current 5,800 to 10,000. The government expects the number of seriously ill patients to rise from the current 3,000 to 9,000 in two weeks.
