Title: (Fighting against New Coronary Pneumonia) France made a final sprint for "unblocking" Macron and called on the public to be cautious
China News Agency, Paris, May 10 (Reporter Li Yang) France made the final sprint for "unblocking" on the 10th, and all preparations are basically ready. French President Macron called on the public to be cautious on the eve of the "unblocking".
France will gradually "unblock" from the 11th. According to the statistics of the epidemic released by the French Ministry of Health on the evening of the 10th, there were 26,380 deaths from New Coronary Pneumonia in France and 70 deaths in a single day, the lowest number of deaths in a single day in recent weeks.
Macron called on the public to be cautious that night. He expressed his gratitude to the people who had insisted in the "closure" for 55 days, and said that the spread of the new crown virus has a tendency to weaken. But he also warned that the virus still exists.
Starting from the 11th, the store will be able to resume business but must comply with hygiene regulations, public transportation services will also be restored, and the public can also engage in outdoor activities. However, restaurants, cafes and other places are still closed, large gatherings are still not allowed, and the range of public travel is not more than 100 kilometers away from the residence.
Public transportation in France is one of the biggest challenges in epidemic prevention and control after the “unblocking”. According to official arrangements, after "unblocking", 60 of the more than 300 subway stations in Paris will continue to be closed; proof of work is required to take public transportation during peak hours in the morning and evening; if you take the bus, you must wear a mask, otherwise you will be punished.
French Minister of the Interior Castane said on the 10th that the entire law will deploy 20,000 police and gendarmerie to regulate public order, especially to ensure the health and safety of the French people in transportation after the "unblocking". The police may also help maintain order to avoid congestion in public transportation.
Castane said that the key to the success of "unblocking" is not basically dependent on increasing virus testing or wearing a mask, but the public's respect for hygiene standards. He emphasized again that the process of phasing out control measures is likely to take several weeks.
Castane also revealed that since the outbreak, France has imported 1.3 billion masks, and he admitted that the supply of masks is tight. Paris Regional Council Chairman Pequeres said that after "unblocking" it will continue to promote the distribution of masks in the Paris region. (Finish)
