In his weekly report on the epidemic of Covid-19 from Friday August 14, 2020, the Agence Régionale de Santé Nouvelle-Aquitaine (ARS) indicates that the virus is circulating and in particular among 15-44 year olds:

The virus is still gaining ground, particularly in the 15-44 age group with an incidence rate of 8.9 / 100,000 in week 32 (08/03 to 08/09). The decrease in vigilance and the non-respect of barrier gestures during festive events were at the origin of many epidemic outbreaks in New Aquitaine
