Many of you send us your questions about the Covid-19 every day (sometimes at night). We thank you for your trust in our newspaper and for your loyalty.
As an emerging disease, this new coronavirus has not yet revealed all its secrets, and the measures of the government, the tracks envisaged to, here contain the disease, there out of confinement, evolve according to the progress of research . It is therefore not always easy, possible, to provide an answer, or a very precise, even personalized solution to your questions.
Nevertheless, "nou larg pa nou tiembo" ("we do not let go of the case"), as the Reunionese say. This Friday, we therefore offer you a recap of your most frequently asked questions, with all the links and references on which you too can rely.
Animals. As a preamble, so far, "despite some sporadic cases", "there is" no evidence that pets or farm animals play an epidemiological role in the spread of the virus ", insists ANSES in a notice March 9, updated April 14. Nevertheless, the National Health Security Agency recommends "applying basic hygiene measures when contacting a domestic animal by washing your hands before and after petting it, after changing its litter and avoid close face contact. "
In the case of horses placed in boarding houses or in equestrian centers, it is now possible for owners to go and feed and / or care for them, as announced here. For other animals, which also do not live under your roof, such as ducks, donkey, poultry, you are also allowed to take care of them, because, if this is not the case, you could be accused of animal abuse.
Finally, you have the right to go to a SPA-type refuge to adopt an animal. On the other hand, you are still not authorized to recover a puppy or a cat that you would have reserved in a professional breeding, and this, even before confinement. Only professional breeders can move to deliver your animal to you.
Vulnerable people. The Ministry of the Interior indicates that you can move "only to take care of vulnerable people such as, for example, people with disabilities and remembering that seniors are the most vulnerable people". Bring them errands, drive them to an urgent medical appointment ... all this is authorized, from the moment when "you protect them as much as possible from any contact and pay even greater attention to barrier gestures".
Note also that, since Monday, a right of access "in the Ehpad in" extremely limited "conditions has been established. The details can be found here.
Masks. Is it useful to have children wear masks? Olivier Véran, Minister of Solidarity and Health, gave his opinion, to find out in this article. Where can the French obtain this protection? The first tracks are becoming clearer, for tobacconists, pharmacists, town halls, large retailers for example, or even the Ile-de-France region. In an interview this Friday at Les Echos , the Secretary of State for the Economy, Agnès Pannier-Runacher, affirms that "the first experiments will be made from May 4".
Driving schools. Will driving schools be able to reopen on May 11? One of the players in the sector interviewed by 20 Minutes hardly believes it. He explains why here.
The return of children to class. Many parents are worried about their child, whose gradual return to class is scheduled for May 11. Do they really have to send them back? Not especially. This is what a lawyer explained to us.
Our file on containment
Going back to work. Many employees wonder if they are forced to return to work before the end of confinement, as asked by their employer. Not if the conditions for the takeover are not guaranteed. They will still have to prove it ... The only solution for those who fear for their health and that of their loved one: get sick leave. More details here.
