For her, the government must tighten up. – Cantonal doctor Aglaé Tardin is worried about the resumption of contaminations of older people in Geneva (archives). –KEYSTONE/MARTIAL TREZZINI – Geneva cantonal doctor Aglaé Tardin is concerned about the health situation linked to the Covid-19 epidemic in Geneva, where the number of infections is relatively higher than elsewhere in Switzerland. “In recent weeks we are seeing again that older people have been infected,” she said in an interview with the Geneva Tribune. – “We realize that the youngest infect the older,” continued Aglaé Tardin. The main concern of the authorities, “is to no longer succeed in protecting populations at risk since the spread of the virus is no longer confined to young people”. – For the cantonal doctor, a turn of the screw must be given by the government. “Currently, people can organize events of up to 1000 people.” A limit that Aglaé Tardin considers far too high. The Geneva Council of State should in principle communicate on this subject next week. – Aglaé Tardin explains the relatively high number of infections in Geneva due to the urban, international and border character of the canton, “which enjoys a rich social and cultural life as well as highly developed leisure activities”. – In the eyes of Aglaé Tardin, wearing a mask in public space, as imposed by several cities in France, is not the panacea for stopping the spread of Covid-19. “The physical distance between people protects better than the mask”. She no longer believes in the hypothesis of a summer brake on the epidemic. – (ATS / NXP) – Related posts:Loss of smell or taste, digestive disorders: little-known symptoms of coronavirusUSA: weekly jobless claims at lowest in over 50 yearsBorden Dairy files bankruptcy | The new dayNîmes - Richard Goyet on Usaï's departure: "Three-quarters of the dressing room took the hit"Share this:FacebookX Related Amsterdam police sends officers to Zandvoort in case of nuisance | Inland this official render shows what it should look like Leave a Comment Cancel replyCommentName Email Website Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
