Paris and its three neighbouring departments were announced to be in “maximal warning zone” last night for a period of two weeks after the coronavirus cases increased dangerously since August.

All the bars will have to be closed from Tuesday this week, universities will have to reduce the  numbers of students on campus simultaneously but restaurants will still be open with maximum precautions.

The protests surrounding the coronavirus restrictions for bar owners weren’t enough this time to stop the government from shutting everything down as the situation doesn’t seem to improve.
