The two patients with the new coronavirus in ICU at Lille are "in stable condition that remains very worrisome ," said on Friday to the press, near Tours, the Minister of Social Affairs and Health, Marisol Touraine.
"I remain, with health authorities, very mobilized because we are here facing a virus whose geographical origin is identified, the Middle East, but the precise origin is unknown," said the minister, in the margin of a trip to Joue-les-Tours (Indre-et-Loire), where she laid the foundation stone of a nursing home (accommodation facility for the elderly).
"The transmission conditions are poorly defined. International vigilance, not just French, is required," continued Marisol Touraine.
The minister also announced that she would be present at the General Assembly of the World Health Organization (WHO) on Tuesday. "I'll have a meeting with the Director General of the WHO, which will focus on how to address this risk related to coronavirus," she said.
