French Health Minister: COVID-19 epidemic has not yet peaked
Paris
France has not yet reached the peak of its COVID-19 epidemic, French Health Minister Olivier Veran said on Tuesday.
“We are still in a worsening phase of the epidemic,” Veran told broadcaster BFM TV. He also said that the country’s lockdown would last as long as necessary, Reuters reported.
France’s coronavirus figures on Monday showed that the rate of increase in fatalities - at almost 9,000 - sped up again after several days of slowing.
