The figures of COVID-19 case infected are increasingly worrying because the increase is exponential, and the hospitals of Paris (APHP) indicate to be already almost saturated, with 75% of occupancy of the beds planned for the care of patients COVID-19. "Our capacity, which has gone from 5,000 beds before the first wave to 6,000 today, will be taken beyond 10,000 intensive care beds." Said Head of State Macron, during his speech on Thursday evening at 8 p.m., in prime time, on TF1 Channel TV, during which he announced the re-confinement from the next day at midnight, until December 1. This is why President Macron also justified this almost immediate confinement by the sharp increase in cases tested positive for COVID-19, which must be reduced to 5,000, failing which the lockdown could be extended beyond the first four weeks originally announced.
