“You have to be serious and tell people the truth.

The epidemic is out of control ”.

This Monday morning, at the microphone of France Bleu Occitanie, the president of the departmental council of Haute-Garonne did not mince words in the face of the measures taken as part of this new "light confinement".

For Georges Méric, a doctor by profession, the first effects of the traffic restrictions will take longer to take effect than last spring.

For "serious confinement"

For this socialist politician, the containment decision is very late and he predicts that the pandemic is likely to last until next September.

Faced with the announced congestion of hospitals in the coming days, the latter indicates that it is necessary to consider the closure of schools.

"The medium term is to have real confinement," Georges Méric explained to the air.

Asked about the municipal decrees authorizing the reopening of local shops, as in Montauban, the president of the department indicated "that he understood the managers of shops and cafetiers" and that it was necessary to help them, while advocating a "serious confinement ".
