The holiday center was chosen in particular for its capacity, namely 140 rooms, but also because it is, according to the authorities, an isolated place, therefore easier to secure. It can only be accessed by a single road and two paths at the beach. According to the mayor of Carry-le-Rouet, Jean Montagnac, the gendarmes arrived at 2.30 p.m. to secure the three accesses. Jean Montagnac indicates that he was informed first by the media, then by the prefect.
Another place chosen by the authorities to welcome returnees from Wuhan is the Aix-en-Provence Higher School for Firefighting Officers (Esosp). A site with an area of 30,000 m² where several hundred people can stay, with individual rooms and medical technical platforms.
