The government made numerous announcements within 48 hours, which were very political measures.

Olivier Véran's announcements on the new isolation modalities show that the government wants to avoid the disorganization of the country in the first place, even if it is also justified from a health point of view, with a lower virulence of the Omicron variant of the Covid -19, with 230,000 cases per day and hundreds of thousands of contact cases.

The ministry therefore adapts the health protocol.

On this point too, it is an economic issue.

With closed schools, it is parents at home and businesses that suffer the absences.

The whole stake for the executive is to maintain this crest line in the coming weeks, with the watchword to get there: vaccinate again and again.
