INTERVIEW
The epidemic figures are worrying in the Grand-Est region.
This week, the ARS assessed the incidence rate, or the number of new cases per 100,000 inhabitants, at 230, a figure much higher than in the rest of France.
Some elected officials of the Grand Est Region are already calling on the government and the health authorities, demanding, like the mayors of Nancy and Reims, an imminent reconfinement.
"I am not far from sharing this opinion," said the president of the region, Jean Rottner, guest of Europe 1 on Saturday morning.
He recommends a “short reconfinement” which would make it possible to “relapse the curves”.
