Coronavirus: What is a cluster? - 20 Minutes
It is one of the terms we discovered during the coronavirus epidemic. Anglicism "cluster" has been used countless times since the Covid-19 appeared within our borders.
Outbreaks
The term, translated into French by “grappe” or “groupement”, is the term chosen by the French authorities to speak of the epidemic foci of Covid-19. A cluster is defined as the occurrence of at least three confirmed or probable cases over a period of 7 days in the same community, or among people who participated in the same gathering.
If their number has greatly decreased, there are still several on French territory, and the "new" are particularly scrutinized by the health authorities. The general direction of Health thus indicated Thursday evening, in its daily press release, that 276 clusters were discovered in France since May 9, “including 5 new, that is to say 77 under investigation.
