As the Omicron variant is gaining ground in France, how can we celebrate the end of the year celebrations? Under these conditions, some plan to review the organization of the festivities.
In the city center of Toulouse (Haute-Garonne), nothing could disturb the festive atmosphere that sets in with the approach of Christmas: many still rush to the stores to complete their gifts on Thursday, December 16. However, this year again, we will have to reckon with the Covid-19. “With the coronavirus, there is a lot of stress. With Christmas presents, we try to give a little pleasure”, a passerby advances.
And buyers “have fun”, confirms Alain Alter, vice-president of the National Federation of Clothing in Occitania. “I think there are budget deferrals that have occurred in relation to trips not made”. However, the big tables are over as in the past. Food shops confirm: meals will be held in small groups. “It will be necessary to ventilate, everyone is vaccinated, we will test ourselves before”, announces a client.
