The number is inevitably a hit, when thinking about the family reunion that Christmas must be.

Due to the increase in the number of Covid cases, the executive anticipates a number of intensive care patients which "should exceed 3,000 very quickly and reach 4,000 around the holidays", government spokesman Gabriel Attal said on Wednesday.

A level that puts pressure on a public hospital already on the verge of collapse, and which has not yet seen the peak of the epidemic.

"The white plans put in place in many regions will make it possible to organize themselves and avoid congestion in the hospital at the end of the year", he assured, warning however that there could be " new decisions by the end of the week ”, mentioning an acceleration of the vaccination campaign and the strengthening of border controls.
