While the year it only has 250 inhabitants, in summer, the island of Aix, the smallest town in Charente-Maritime, sees an influx of many owners of second homes and an uninterrupted flow of tourists who come to visit in particular the Napoleonic museum.
But in recent days, an surge in the number of Covid-19 cases has been identified by the village doctor located off the Fouras peninsula.
Faced with the health risk, the mayor, Patrick Denaud, decided to reinstate the curfew since Tuesday evening.
He thus adopted a municipal decree prohibiting all movement and circulation between midnight and 6 a.m., except for a compelling reason.
Anyone who does not comply is then liable to a fine.
