Olivier Véran, Minister of Health for the two fundamentals who are not really following the news at the moment, would not embark on the purchase of a plane ticket for this summer for the moment. This is in any case what he said in an interview with our colleagues from the Parisian, when he was asked about the summer holidays: "Let us not be too eager to make reservations". “Unfortunately, there is little chance that the virus will decide to go on vacation. In the absence of treatment and vaccine, the behavior of the French will have a considerable weight, "he added.
In the rest of the interview, the minister opened the idea to delayed deconfinement in the event of France's “poor results” in health. The R0, the reproductive factor of the virus, which had dropped to 0.5, would already have gone back to 0.6. "It is the sign of a certain relaxation [...] if the number of new patients were to be too high, the date of lifting of the confinement [May 11] could be questioned and will be appreciated by the departments", a he particularly warned.
Always more masks
As for the hot topic of masks, Olivier Véran has been proactive: “Up to now, 45 million masks have been destocked per week intended for health professionals. From May 11, 100 million will be distributed to them free of charge. "
Masks that could become a bad memory once the epidemic passed according to the Minister of Health. For him, the masks should disappear with the pandemic, except during extreme flu. "When we get this damn virus down, the idea is that we will find a normal life. So there will come a day when you can once again admire the smirk of your crush.
