The representative of the Republic has unveiled an order prohibiting the sale, possession, and use of pyrotechnic articles. The consumption of alcohol will also be banned in public spaces during this period.
This order applies to all the municipalities of the Alpes-Maritimes.
These measures aim to curb the spread of Covid in France, where indicators continue to rise as the year-end holiday season approaches. Yesterday, Friday, December 17, 163 people died in hospitals, and 2,091 patients were in intensive care units according to data published by Public Health France and INSEE.
The incidence rate has never been higher in the 06, standing at 865 in the Alpes-Maritimes. It is also significantly higher than the national average, which was calculated at 526 this Saturday by Public Health France.
