France: COVID-19 infections spike midweek
Many coronavirus indicators continue downward trend, but troubling rise in cases reinforces need for caution
France has been seeing a downward trend in daily coronavirus statistics, but Wednesday brought a troubling spike in infections.
Cases rose substantially to 14,064 from 8,803 on Tuesday.
Announcing new measures to stem the spread of COVID-19, South Africa’s president also said 391 public healthcare workers in the country have died from the virus.

In a televised address late Monday, Cyril Ramaphosa said over 38,000 public sector healthcare workers tested positive for coronavirus and nearly 5,000 of them were admitted to hospitals.
“As a nation, we owe so much to these brave and dedicated people and to their families, for without them, we would not have come this far,” he said.
Sizable drops had been recorded in past weeks in a welcome sign, but Wednesday’s rise was notable. Total infections since record-keeping began in March stand at 2,230,571, according to the Ministry of Health.
Fatalities fell to 313 from 365 on Tuesday. The official death toll since March stands at 53,816.
Hospitalizations fell as well to 8,625 from 9,047 the previous day. A total of 1,212 people remain in intensive care, down by 97.
The positivity rate in France remains at 10.8% but has been descending over the past week

Worldwide, the death toll from COVID-19 stands at more than 1.4 million since the virus was first detected in Wuhan, China in late December last year. The number of infections totals over 64 million, according to the latest figures from US-based Johns Hopkins University.
As news emerged Wednesday that the first vaccinations would take place in the UK starting next week, France is ramping up its own vaccinations with a screening campaign to take place in three test cities: Lille, Saint-Etienne and Le Havre.
A second wave of COVID-19 hit South Africa in the middle of last week, according to the Health Ministry.
“As we confront the second wave of infections, we must do everything we can to support and protect our health workers,” Ramaphosa said, adding that unless the public acts responsibly by adhering to all basic precautions, they will face a bleak New Year.

“This festive season, I am asking you to keep your celebrations small and avoid crowds,” Ramaphosa said, announcing new restrictions to help curb the spread of the virus.
“The sale of alcohol from retail outlets will only be permitted between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. from Monday to Thursday,” he said.
Ramaphosa said beaches and public parks in areas with high cases of COVID-19 will be closed from Dec. 16 to Jan. 3.
He also announced that the hours of the curfew will now be longer, starting at 11 p.m. and ending at 4 a.m. He banned all post-funeral gatherings.
The real solution though, according to scientists, is mass testing, with the ability to test nearly the entire population of France, the icing on the cake to a pandemic that has ravaged the country. The goal: Finding those who do not present symptoms who are the most common spreaders of the virus. Eliminating one of the greatest factors in the contagion chain would be key.
Ten scientists delivered a letter to the Elysee Palace on Wednesday recommending such a mass screening that could take place in the city of Lille before Christmas.
