Covid France: Macron to discuss possible lifting of health rules
With Covid rates dropping across France, President Emmanuel Macron is expected to discuss next week whether to lift certain restrictions in less affected areas in the coming weeks and months.
The president is to meet with the health Defence Council on Wednesday, September 22. Discussions are expected to include whether some flexibility on rules may be possible, in areas of the country that are currently least affected by the virus, Le Figaro reports.
Mr Macron has stated that the country could, “in territories where the virus is spreading less quickly, lift certain constraints and [allow people to] live normally as soon as the health conditions allow it".
