INTERVIEW

The epidemic ebb of the coronavirus continues in France and Jean-François Delfraissy, the president of the Scientific Council, who considers that "the epidemic is under control", is favorable to the reduction of the health protocol in schools. Is accelerating deconfinement well responsible? That's what epidemiologist and public health doctor Martin Blachier said on Europe 1 Sunday. "There is no reason to wait to release the pressure on people," he said.

"We must lift the overly restrictive measures that prevent everyone from living"

"We must lift the overly restrictive measures that prevent everyone from living," says the epidemiologist. If "lots of things can reopen", Martin Blachier considers that "there must be a red line not to be exceeded" that is to say "all major events in confined spaces". "It's too dangerous. It can relaunch the epidemic too brutally," he said.   

"We can largely release the pressure," insists the epidemiologist while warning that it will be necessary "to have a plan if the virus recirculates widely in France, including if we do not realize it".
