He will be surrounded by Olivier Véran, Minister of Health, and Jean-Michel Blanquer, Minister of National Education. Thursday at 10:30 am, a few days before the start of the school year, Prime Minister Jean Castex will hold a press conference about the resumption of the Covid-19 epidemic. This should begin with a presentation before questions and answers with journalists, on the model of the format adopted by his predecessor, Edouard Philippe, in April and May.

This press conference should mark a highlight of the week for the government, which intends to go to the front to warn of the resumption of the epidemic. The presentation of the recovery plan has thus been postponed until next week to concentrate on the sanitary site.
