Press release | To limit the spread of the COVID-19 epidemic, the most effective measures: respect barrier gestures


France is currently in stage 2 of the management of COVID-19 Coronavirus infection. To date, the virus is present in certain territories and circulates, even if it is not present everywhere in the territory. In certain departments where the virus circulates with great intensity, stage 2 measures have been reinforced and the health care system has been adapted.

The elderly are the most vulnerable to the virus and must be protected. It is recommended to avoid visits, especially children under 15, relatives or people with symptoms or sick.

In health establishments, visits are limited to one person per patient. Minors and sick people should not visit hospitalized people, including maternity.

Health and medico-social establishments were mobilized in order to anticipate a transition to a white plan. The White (for hospitals and clinic) and Blue (for EHPAD) plans will be triggered by the director of the health establishment in collaboration with the Regional Health Agencies. At the national level, they will therefore be implemented gradually.

In anticipation of future needs, the health reserve is mobilized by the Regional Health Agencies which request it, in support of health establishments. It is made up of voluntary health professionals (hospital director, doctor, psychologist, pharmacist, nurse, paramedic) who may be in activity, retired for less than 5 years or in training.

In order to facilitate the availability of hydro-alcoholic solutions, a decree has just been published which allows pharmacies to ensure their manufacture themselves.

If you have signs of respiratory infection (fever, cough, difficulty breathing), if you live in an area where the virus is circulating or within 14 days of returning from an area where the virus is circulating:

• contact the SAMU Center 15
• avoid contact with those around you
• do not go to your doctor or to the emergency room

A press point by Mr. Olivier VERAN, Minister of Solidarity and Health and by Prof. J?r?me SALOMON, Director General of Health will be held this evening at the Elys?e, at the end of the Defense Council.
