France seems to be doing more to control and contain than us. Wasn't our first lockdown forced by Macron calling Boris?
If only he'd called again in September (when the UK government ignored SAGE advice).
In France schools are open - but everyone wears masks. All children over the age of 6.
Also people are required to show exemption certificates when going out (if asked) or face a fine.
Finally, the French have recognised that people with diabetes and/or cardiovascular conditions are extremely clinically vulnerable.
The French vaccination prioritisation sounds sensible. They're starting, like us, with care homes and healthcare staff. But then they'll do over 65s AND everyone at highest risk of serious illness or death. Including diabetes, cardiovascular conditions, and obesity. They then intend to prioritise by occupation. So security, transport, etc - jobs with the highest death rates.
I think it's time for Macron to give Boris another call (to issue some advice).
