The state of emergency in France for the coronavirus pandemic will last until July 24 (UPDATES – EL ESPECIAL). This was announced by the Minister of Health, Olivier Véran. The extension was decided by the Council of Ministers in the form of a bill that must be approved by Parliament after a debate that will begin on Monday. According to Johns Hopkins University data, updated at 5 p.m. As of May 2, there are more than 167,300 cases and more than 24,500 victims in the country (GLOBAL DISSEMINATION ON AN ANIMATED MAP – LOCK AND OPEN IN EUROPE AND IN THE WORLD – NEWS FROM FARNESINA IN FRANCE).
“There are risks of epidemic recovery”
According to the provisions of the bill, it is necessary to extend the state of emergency, which entered into force on March 24 and would last until May 23, because it would be “premature” to allow it to expire since there are “risks of epidemic recovery “in the case of” sudden interruption of the measures in progress “(LEAGUE 1 FINISHES: FRENCH CHAMPION OF THE PSG – SCHOOLS OPEN FROM MAY 11 ON OPTIONAL BASIS).
“Mandatory quarantine for those who return”
In addition, Véran said, “all people” who return to “national territory”, in many cases “French who are abroad” and who “want to return” must observe a 14-day “mandatory quarantine”. Quarantine “must be observed by people who are not symptomatic,” Véran explained. “Isolation concerns those who have been diagnosed with a positive coronavirus on medical tests.” Quarantine and isolation “can be mandatory and sanctioned only if they are not respected.” On the other hand, it will not be possible to impose quarantine by law on patients who refuse to isolate themselves, as the government initially envisioned for those who, suffering from coronavirus, they had “repeatedly rejected the isolation prescription for prophylaxis.” , risking their behavior to infect other people. “This norm was part of the initial draft law but, after having raised many criticisms, it has been withdrawn. Véran said he was confident that the French” will be responsible “and that the Interior Minister, Christophe Castaner, appealed to the” civic sense ” of the citizens (THE DJ IS ON THE BALCONIES OF PARIS – MONT SAINT-MICHEL DESERT – TRACES OF THE VIRUS IN THE NON-DRINKING WATER OF PARIS).
No app to reopen
Véran also announced that “there will be no StopCovid application available on May 11” and that it is intended to verify contacts and possible contagions. “We told ourselves that it would be a technological challenge, added the minister, a scientific challenge, a practical challenge. And that starting the reflection would not have committed us to making this device.” “By May 11, Véran concluded, it will not be available in our country. The prime minister has been very clear, if this type of application must exist, it must be operational and show effectiveness. And there will be a debate on the subject in Parliament ” .
