Sun, possible outings in the forest or
on the beach and the opportunity to go see his loved ones. France lives its
first weekendSince
lifting the deconfinement. And it’s very pleasant.
Olivier Véran He took the opportunity to send “a happy message because a large number of French people will be able to find outdoor space, the thread of their life”. But the tone of the Minister of Health is not playful because his message is also filled with “concern […] because
the coronavirus continues to circulate on the territory and it continues to contaminate and drive certain numbers of patients in intensive care ”.

The Minister appealed “to the most vulnerable among us, those aged 65 and over, those with vulnerabilities of chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension. […] Receive as little as possible at home! And Olivier Véran detailed the “binding instructions but which are necessary to ensure your safety”:

  • “If a person thinks he is sick or symptomatic, do not receive him at all”
  • “If you have to receive people at your home, your family, your entourage, always keep the distance of one meter”
  • “If you have your grandchildren, do not give in to the temptation to kiss, to hug them. You can unintentionally expose yourself to the risk of the virus ”
  • “Clean the surfaces they could have touched, in order to protect your habitat” even if the people received do not carry the virus
  • “Wear a mask in all circumstances when you have to see people”
  • “Avoid places with lots of people, public transport”

In short, you will understand, whether you are a person at risk or not, barrier gestures are to be practiced in the sun in the forest or in a wagon on line 13.
