A health defense council meets on Monday, December 6. What are the avenues envisaged in the face of the fifth wave of Covid-19 and those totally excluded in the run-up to Christmas?
To stem the fifth wave of Covid-19 which is hitting France, the government of Jean Castex intends to announce new measures. The main subject of the health defense council, Monday, December 6 at the Elysee Palace, will be that of the vaccination of children from 5 to 11 years old. It could concern all children or the most fragile. It is not yet decided. On the other hand, there is no question of placing additional constraints on those vaccinated. The emphasis is on the incentive and not on the restriction, according to a source close to the Elysee.
Concretely, it would be a question of more teleworking and less pot in business. “This can have an impact on the contaminations that take place during work, but also during catering and in transport “, valued the Dr Pascal Crepey, epidemiologist. Measures will be debated such as new gauges in shops, the return of the mask outdoors and early school holidays. But no re-containment in view of no curfews, the government is banking on vigilance.
