Terraces occupied throughout the day and until the curfew ... The Prefect of Bas-Rhin did not appreciate some scenes seen this weekend in the department, in particular in Strasbourg.

This Monday, Josiane Chevalier therefore decided to toughen up the tone.

The representative defined stricter measures concerning restaurants.

From now on, they can only be opened between 11 am and 3 pm, then between 6 pm and 8:30 pm.

"The meaning of this measure is to reduce social contacts", justified the prefect who also redefined clear rules concerning drinking establishments.

The bars must be completely closed.

As for those who have ancillary activities, "they can only open for these ancillary activities, not to serve drinks," she insisted.

In the Bas-Rhin, the epidemic situation has deteriorated markedly.

On Monday, the Regional Health Agency (ARS) of the Grand-Est communicated the figure of 466 positive cases for covid-19 per 100,000 inhabitants in the eurometropolis of Strasbourg.

In the department, 164 patients are currently hospitalized, affected by the virus.
