Weilan said on the same day that the epidemic is not over, and patients with new crowns are still admitted to hospital every day, and there are still mutated viruses that continue to spread, especially the mutated viruses found in India.
He called on the public to continue to be cautious and actively vaccinate the new crown vaccine.
Vilan said that the current epidemic in France is generally under control, and the average number of new confirmed cases per day has dropped to about 3,000. The average number of new confirmed cases per day has been declining in recent weeks.
Therefore, it is reasonable to remove some control measures in advance.
Weilan pointed out that the vaccination rate of some medical staff is lower than that of the general population.
He revealed that only 50% of nursing staff in nursing homes have received at least one dose of vaccine, and currently nearly 60% of adults have received at least one dose of vaccine.
He believes that this situation needs to be changed.
He said that the authorities are considering compulsory vaccination for certain groups of people, but still plans to correct related problems in a persuasive way.
However, if the mutated virus continues to spread and the situation does not improve by the end of this summer, the mandatory vaccination plan may be implemented.
Disney in Paris resumed its opening on the 17th after being closed for nearly 8 months due to the epidemic.
Disney Paris was closed in response to the second wave of the epidemic at the end of October last year. A conference center in the park has been used as a vaccination center in the past few weeks to provide services for people to vaccinate.
After the opening of Disneyland Paris, the official anti-epidemic measures are strictly enforced. Tourists must maintain a social distance of 1 meter; visitors over 6 years old must wear masks.
Many hotels at the Disney Resort in Paris have also resumed opening on the 17th.
