The number of effective reproduction (effective R) in mainland France is greater than 1 “Summarizes Public Health France.
« On the other hand, the numbers of emergency visits for suspected COVID-19, the numbers of hospitalizations and numbers of admission to intensive care, which are later indicators, continue to show declining trends. “, However estimates Public Health France.
