France on Friday registered 13,215 new infections, its highest daily count since the start of the pandemic and a significant increase from the 10,593 recorded a day earlier.
While the recent surge in cases mostly affected the young, infections are now growing fast among the over-75s, the health agency said in its weekly update.
Admissions to hospital and intensive care wards are also increasing, the agency added, warning that all coronavirus indicators are now worsening.
"For the first time since the lifting of the lockdown, we are seeing an increase in Covid-19 deaths," the agency said, adding that 265 people had died from the virus this week compared with 129 last week.
