The winter wave of Covid-19 continued its decline in France on Thursday, which began several weeks ago.

In the past twenty-four hours, 60,225 new cases have been recorded, according to the French public health agency.

With this figure, the seven-day average, which gives an idea of ​​the real evolution of the epidemic, declines to 52,222 cases against 53,152 the day before (and more than 66,000 seven days ago).

The pressure is also reduced in the hospital.

A total of 23,175 patients are hospitalized with Covid, including 2,231 in critical care, these two figures being down from the previous day.

The previous Thursday, hospitals had 26,118 Covid + patients, including 2,656 in critical care.

Finally, 167 additional deaths were recorded in twenty-four hours at the hospital, against 197 a week ago.

Vaccination at a slow rate

In intensive care units, there is a “decrease of around 400 to 500 patients per week”, noted the Minister of Health Olivier Véran, welcoming that hospitals are no longer forced to deprogram other care.
