At the national level
For all of France – mainland and overseas territories – the incidence rate is roughly equivalent to that of the Alpes-Maritimes, with 376 positive cases per 100,000 inhabitants, one more point than the incidence in the Alpes-Maritimes.
An average of 36,097 positive cases are reported daily in France (over a 7-day period), showing a 21% decrease compared to the previous week.
