French health authorities reported 5,266 daily new Covid-19 infections on Monday, pushing the seven-day moving average of new cases to an almost three-month high. Unlike some of its European peers, France has yet to announce a new batch of restrictive measure to contain the disease, with some experts saying the ongoing wave could hit its climax in the country around Christmas.
It's part of moves to free up capacity in Paris with the peak of the COVID-19 epidemic expected in the coming week.
France reported 261,481 new coronavirus infections on Thursday, less than the record of more than 332,000 set on Wednesday, but the seven-day moving average of new cases rose above 200,000 for the first time since thenstart of the health crisis.
The vaccination rate has slowed down in Romania. In other European countries, governments push for stricter measures against the unvaccinated amid soaring coronavirus infections.
Bulgaria said on Saturday it was days away from sending coronavirus patients abroad as a vicious fourth wave overwhelms its health system and forces neighbouring Romania to ramp up restrictions.
