The French government is considering whether or not to impose a third national lockdown. France is now under a 6pm curfew but coronavirus cases have still continued to rise. A final decision on that move is said to be announced on Wednesday and depending on the effects of this tightened curfew. But just how could this new lockdown look like: a very strict one like in March 2020, or rather a loosened up version like in November 2020?
As France could be on course for its third national lockdown, calls have been rising for such measure to be implemented for “the most at risk”: the elder. The country recorded 26,000 new Covid-19 cases on Thursday, its highest figure since November, and some experts are now warning that another lockdown could be unavoidable.
While the Covid-19 cases in France keep rising, many students say they are weary and demoralized after months of uncertainty about their education. Some took to the streets of Paris to demand their return to classrooms despite the pandemic. Many raised alarm on growing isolation, cases of depression and economic problems.
Nearly 16,000 new cases of COVID-19 were recorded in the last 24 hours, according to data published on Sunday by French health authorities.
President Emmanuel Macron said last month that restrictions would be lifted on December 15 if new daily cases were no higher than 5,000 but the country's top health official said Monday that "it will be very difficult to achieve this goal."
