"While the obligation to wear a mask in business and for college and high school students will come into force in ten days, the government is fully mobilized to prepare for this health deadline," writes the government spokesman in his press release. . He underlines that President Emmanuel Macron and Prime Minister Jean Castex want the ministers to “finalize the precise modalities” of this obligation “to ensure the proper application of these preventive measures and allow their ownership by all”.

Following the defense council, the statement continued, "the ministers concerned will devote the following days to continuing the meetings initiated with their respective sectors to support them and ensure with them the correct application of the new health measures of September 1". Consequently, "the presentation of the stimulus plan, which was initially due to be made next Tuesday, will take place the first week of September".
