On CovidTracker, all encrypted data related to the coronavirus pandemic is listed and analyzed.

At the initiative of this application, Guillaume Rozier, a young 24-year-old engineer.

Guest from Europe Morning Thursday, he dissected the current epidemic situation and its contradictions. 

Number of deaths, hospitalizations by region, vaccination ... For almost a year, data related to the Covid-19 pandemic has been accumulating, to the point where we can no longer see it very clearly.

From the start of the health crisis, Guillaume Rozier, a computer engineer, decided to put his expertise as a data analyst to good use, by voluntarily creating the CovidTracker site.

Guest of Matthieu Belliard Thursday morning, he notably confirmed that according to his data, the current vaccination rate was much too low.

A vaccination much too slow

Thanks to his Vaccine Planner tool, which makes it possible to estimate the waiting time for each person to receive a vaccine according to the orders of priorities, Guillaume Rozier explained that the pace in France was much too slow.

"The rate of vaccination depends of course on the stock. But currently, a person of 20, 30 or 40 years who has no other health concerns, could not be vaccinated before at least 2024", has t -he judges.

Regarding the sanitary measures and the curfew in place, the engineer also said that its effects were more than limited.

"The curfew showed an effectiveness in October or in the departments with a reinforced curfew at the beginning of January. But what is clear is that today the number of cases, ie the rate of incidence continues to increase, so the curfew is no longer sufficient, ”he says. 

While different scenarios appear on the executive's table and new measures should be announced, Guillaume Rozier explained that the epidemic situation in France at the moment was quite paradoxical, for several reasons.

“It's quite strange, since at the epidemic level, we have a worrying but not alarming situation. We have a fairly high number of cases detected, which is around 20,000 per day. But this figure is not explosive. is increasing moderately, not like in October when it increased by 50% every week. There we are more around 10%, "he detailed.

"Hospitals that did not empty after the second wave"

But it is at the health level that things are complicated, according to him.

"The hospitals are in a fairly tense situation because they did not empty themselves after the second wave in December. We currently have 27,000 people hospitalized for the Covid, which is ultimately not so far from the peak of the second wave which was 34,000. And then we have hospital admissions which are important and especially which are increasing every day ".

Finally, the young engineer returned to the case of the Covid-19 variants, calling on the health authorities to reveal more data concerning them.

"Today; the number of cases resulting from variants is counted in the same way as the previous variants. Perhaps we are currently seeing two or three epidemics combined into one, and that we does not see them. For the moment, Public Health France does not communicate these figures, but I would like it to be the case as quickly as possible, because that could explain the current rather strange dynamics ", he called .
