China News Agency, Paris, April 21 (Reporter Li Yang) On the 21st local time, the cumulative deaths of French new coronary pneumonia rose to 20796 cases. The number of deaths in the Greater Paris area continues to rise, surpassing 5,000 people on that day.
According to the latest epidemic statistics released by the Minister of Health of France, Salomon that night, France had 531 new deaths that day, and the cumulative deaths rose to 20796, including 12,900 hospital deaths and 7896 deaths in nursing homes.
Salomon said that the current number of inpatients is 30,106, of which 5,433 are severely ill, and the number of inpatients and seriously ill is still declining. He promised that all medical staff who were infected in the epidemic will be properly taken care of, and if they lose their ability to work temporarily or permanently due to infection, they will be compensated.
According to the statistics of the health department on the 21st, in the Paris region of France, where the epidemic of new crown pneumonia is most severe, the death toll has exceeded 5,000. In the Greater Paris area, there were 147 deaths on a single day, and the death toll rose to 5,108. At present, the number of serious patients in the Greater Paris area is slowly decreasing to 2116.
A research result published by the Pasteur Institute in France on the 21st shows that by May 11, about 5.7% of the population (about 3.8 million people) in France should be infected with the new coronavirus. The epidemic situation is serious in the Greater Paris area and the Greater Eastern Region, and the proportion of the infected population in these two areas should be higher.
However, the Pasteur Institute warned that this level of immunity is much lower than the level of immunity that can avoid the recurrence of the immune situation while removing all control measures. Therefore, it is necessary to continue to take effective measures to prevent the epidemic after May 11. French control measures will continue to be implemented until May 11.
French Minister of Education Bronguere announced the French school resumption plan on the 21st. According to the plan, primary and secondary schools will resume classes gradually from May 11th. The first classes will be resumed for the first and fifth grades of primary school. The second and third grade students will resume classes on May 18th. . After class resumption, each class will strictly limit the number of students, no more than 15 students. (Finish)
