Two weeks before Christmas, the government announced on Thursday, December 10, during the traditional weekly press conference on the Covid-19 crisis, a relaxation of health restrictions as of December 15. The decisions were made in the face of a situation less favorable than anticipated.
The Prime Minister, Jean Castex, confirmed “the possibility to travel throughout the territory” starting from December 15, despite “stricter rules” than expected against Covid-19.
There will no longer be daytime travel certificates, but a curfew is established from 8 PM to 6 AM. Except on December 24.
Cultural venues (cinema, theater, opera, sports arenas) remain closed until January 7.
Places of worship will maintain the current protocol based on social distancing.
