The National Security Council met this Wednesday morning to agree on measures for the second part of the first phase of deconfinement.
1. Each home can accommodate 4 people, always the same, from Sunday, May 10
Home visits are allowed. We can accommodate four people (friends / relatives / family members not living under the same roof), always the same. A child is considered a person. Social distancing will have to be maintained. Preferably outside if possible. “If you have a terrace or a garden, see yourself outside”, urged Ms. Wilmès. Particular attention should be paid to the elderly.
It will always be the same 4 people.
There will NOT be a distance limit to reach a home. We can therefore leave our city and travel 50 km to see our parents, for example.
“This system will make it easier to know who has contacted whom. A further relaxation is not envisaged next week”, said the Prime Minister again.
2. The stores will reopen on Monday, May 11, a parent may be accompanied by a child under 18
The reopening of ALL stores is confirmed, with compliance with a number of rules. We will have to do our shopping alone except with a child under 18. People who need help can also be supported.
3. All national sports competitions remain canceled until the end of July ((learn more)
In addition, the markets will remain prohibited and we continue to take public transport only if we have no other choice.
