China News Service, Paris, September 13 (Reporter Li Yang) On the 13th local time, the pace of rebound of the French new crown pneumonia epidemic continued, and the cumulative number of confirmed cases exceeded 380,000 on that day.
Several experts jointly called on the public to avoid private gatherings.
According to the epidemic data released that night, although many virus testing agencies were closed during the weekend, there were still 7,183 new confirmed cases in a single day in France on the 13th.
The total number of confirmed cases in France reached 381094 that day.
The number of cluster infection cases under investigation increased to 826 on the 13th, a new high; 66 new cluster infection cases were added in a single day on the 13th; the positive rate of virus detection in the last seven days is still 5.4%.
The number of deaths from new coronary pneumonia in France is now 30,916.
The recent cluster of infections in the Gloriande Nursing Home in the Aveyron province of southern France has aroused public concern.
According to the statistics of the local health department, 53 of the 75 households in the nursing home have been diagnosed with the infection, and another 20 staff members have been diagnosed with the infection.
The nursing home reported the first case of this cluster of infections earlier this month.
As of the evening of the 12th, 5 infected households have died.
The nursing home has taken a number of measures to deal with the spread of the virus: large-scale testing; all residents are required to stay in their rooms; staff must pay close attention to the health of the residents.
The local government appealed to volunteers to support nursing home staff to provide necessary assistance.
Many French medical experts jointly called on the people to avoid private gatherings through the Sunday newspaper on the 13th and remain vigilant about the spread of the new crown virus.
A joint letter from experts warned that the virus is spreading faster and faster, and it is now in a new stage of the virus epidemic. Tracking new sources of pollution is losing, and there may not be much time left for "collective action."
Experts believe that the epidemic data indicators are still deteriorating. Now almost all places in France require masks, but the number of infections is still increasing.
With the development of the epidemic, the possibility of being infected in closed places is increasing.
Experts call for avoiding private gatherings as much as possible in this situation.
