France is in total quarantine. The announcement was made by President Macron.

Emmanuel Macron said the country was “at risk of being overwhelmed by a second wave of the pandemic, which will undoubtedly be tougher than the first,” according to the BBC.

Macron stressed, however, that other European countries, such as Spain, Ireland and the Netherlands, had taken “harder and earlier measures than ours.” “Schools will remain open, work can continue, centers for the elderly can be visited. As in spring, you can leave home to go to work, go to the doctor, give assistance to a loved one, to go to classes or to get air near the house, ”he said.

He added that people will have to fill out a statement to justify leaving the house, as happened in March.
