Monday April 13, Emmanuel Macron announced the gradual reopening of schools from May 11. “This choice reveals an absolute lack of logic. We do not understand this announcement “, indignant with the Figaro doctor Patrick Bouet, president of the national council of the Order of Physicians. According to him, this decision involves many risks, without solving the problem of the economic situation at the standstill.
“Deconfiguring the school environment would mean putting the virus back into circulation,” he said, especially since it is difficult to enforce barrier gestures at school and children are better able to spread it. infection with no symptoms.
They could thus reintroducing the virus into the family cocoon, endangering the elderly.
The danger of a “virus rebound” is very real, and medical personnel are still in short supply of protective equipment. Emmanuel Macron did indeed promised masks for the French, but there is no indication that the situation will be resolved by May 11. However, with mass screening, the wearing of a mask for all should be effective before even considering deconfinement.

The expert admits to understanding the urgency of the recovery, but deplores the prioritization of the economic aspect over the health aspect.
