“According to the 13 members who make up the Committee, the return in force of the disease on the French territory, in the short or medium term, is a probability,” reports BFMTV. “Is Europe not done with Covid-19?”
Not just Europe. Their alarm bells for a moment are stirring in the northern hemisphere also mean that they can also recede, or at some times be interrupted, in the United States, Mexico, Canada, China, Japan and India.
Its worrying forecasts are 3 criteria:
Some experts reject a wave for now. They are not the public fitness experts who even talk about a third for the crown. Chaired by infectious diseases specialist Jean-Fran’ois Delfraissy, the other members of the committee are virologists and epidemiologists.
“If we look at the hitale of primary respiratory virus pandemics, we see that 8 out of ten spontaneously reced in European countries in the summer. On the other hand, five out of ten breed in the fall,” Professor Delfraissy told Le Journal.
In early June, the Council expressed confidence that the Covid-1nine crisis was “under control” in France. Active, but slower. Today, France reported 373 new coronavirus infections in 2 hours. This compares to 80,000 at the birth of March and 1,000 at the birth of June.
The news comes as Europe prepares to open its borders to a couple of 50 countries with similar rates of Covid-1nine infection in July. And as a bubble is about to recover, china-Singapore tourism began, unde quarantined if the test results are negative. Japan would also soon ease its restrictions on Australia, New Zealand, Thailand and Vietnam.
Will travelers have to make the most of a Europe summer before a new lockdown hits in fall? The spectre of a second wave could certainly lead to that, and fresh travel bans.
To avoid such a scenario, scientists say follow-up and preparation are crucial. “We don’t seem afraid of the early appearance of a wave at the moment,” the authors, virologist Bruno Lina, told radio france Inter. But in the fall, yes, it’s possible.
“However, we don’t seem in a february-march-like scenario,” he added. “We have tools, means, that allow us to better monitor this virus and we will probably do what we did in the first wave of the epidemic … to adjust their propagation once they are known very quickly.”
Colleague, Lilos Angeles Bouadma was less positive: “We still have more than a week, even wait more than a month, to organize for this day … because a wave could be much worse than the first.” told a French parliament in Covid -1our up investigative committee a los angelesst week.
