La pandemia de COVID-19 en Francia ha provocado 38.997.490 [1] casos confirmados de COVID-19 y 168.091 [1] muertes.
Se confirmó que el virus había llegado a Francia el 24 de enero de 2020, cuando se identificó el primer caso de COVID-19 tanto en Europa como en Francia en Burdeos . Los primeros cinco casos confirmados fueron todos individuos que habían llegado recientemente de China. [2] [3] Un turista chino que fue ingresado en un hospital de París el 28 de enero de 2020, murió el 14 de febrero de 2020, convirtiéndose en la primera víctima mortal conocida de COVID-19 fuera de Asia, así como la primera en Francia. [4] [5] [6] [7] Un evento clave en la propagación de la enfermedad en Francia metropolitana, así como en sus territorios de ultramar, fue la asamblea anual de la Iglesia Cristiana de Puertas Abiertas entre el 17 y el 24 de febrero de 2020 en Mulhouse , a la que asistieron unas 2.500 personas, de las cuales se cree que al menos la mitad contrajeron el virus. [8] [9] El 4 de mayo de 2020, las pruebas retroactivas de muestras en un hospital francés mostraron que un paciente probablemente ya estaba infectado con el virus el 27 de diciembre de 2019, casi un mes antes del primer caso confirmado oficialmente. [10] [11]
El primer período de confinamiento comenzó el 17 de marzo de 2020 y finalizó el 11 de mayo de 2020. [12] El 2 de mayo de 2020, el ministro de Salud, Olivier Véran, anunció que el gobierno buscaría extender el período de emergencia sanitaria hasta el 24 de julio de 2020. [13] Varios alcaldes se opusieron al levantamiento del confinamiento el 11 de mayo de 2020, que había sido anunciado por el presidente unas semanas antes en un discurso televisado a la nación, [12] diciendo que era prematuro. El proyecto de ley de Véran se discutió en el Senado el 4 de mayo de 2020. [14]
A partir de agosto de 2020, se produjo un aumento de la tasa de infección y el 10 de octubre de 2020, Francia estableció un número récord de nuevas infecciones en un período de 24 horas en Europa con 26.896 registradas. El aumento provocó que Francia entrara en un segundo confinamiento nacional el 28 de octubre de 2020. El 15 de octubre de 2020, la policía allanó las casas y oficinas de funcionarios gubernamentales clave, incluidos Véran y Philippe, en una investigación por negligencia criminal abierta por el Tribunal de Justicia de la República . [15] Según un equipo de epidemiólogos franceses, menos del 5% de la población total de Francia, o alrededor de 2,8 millones de personas, pueden haber sido infectadas con COVID-19. Se cree que esta cifra fue casi el doble en las regiones de Île-de-France y Alsacia . [16]
El 31 de marzo de 2021, Macron anunció un tercer confinamiento nacional que comenzó el 3 de abril de 2021 y que fue obligatorio durante todo abril de 2021; las medidas incluyeron el cierre de comercios no esenciales, la suspensión de la asistencia a escuelas, la prohibición de viajes nacionales y un toque de queda a nivel nacional de 7:00 p. m. a 6:00 a. m.
En febrero de 2022, se informó que no se requieren pruebas para ingresar al país y que los niños menores de 12 años están libres de requisitos de vacunación. [17]
Fondo
La pandemia se produjo tras una serie de protestas nacionales , a las que siguió una huelga contra la reforma de las pensiones que había propuesto el presidente Emmanuel Macron en su manifiesto electoral. [18] [19] La huelga de reforma de las pensiones fue la huelga más larga de la historia moderna de Francia. [20] En el segundo discurso del presidente Emmanuel Macron a la nación sobre la pandemia el 16 de marzo de 2020, anunció la suspensión de todas las reformas, en particular las de las pensiones. [21]
El 12 de enero de 2020, la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) confirmó que un nuevo coronavirus era la causa de una enfermedad respiratoria en un grupo de personas en Wuhan , Hubei, China, que inicialmente había llamado la atención de la OMS el 31 de diciembre de 2019. [22] [23] El 21 de enero de 2020, Agnès Buzyn , Ministra de Solidaridad y Salud, declaró que "el riesgo de introducción en Francia es bajo, pero no se puede excluir". [24]
Cronología
Diciembre de 2019 – marzo de 2020: Primeros casos de confinamiento
Primeros casos
El 2 de diciembre de 2019, un hombre fue ingresado en el Hôpital Albert Schweitzer ( Colmar ); el 7 de mayo de 2020, el director del departamento de imágenes médicas afirmó que el hombre había dado positivo por COVID-19 en diciembre de 2019. [26] Es posible que la muestra estuviera contaminada. [27] Su exploración torácica, tomada en diciembre de 2019, fue una de varias exploraciones sospechosas identificadas por el hospital como típicas de COVID-19, la primera de estas exploraciones sospechosas fue el 16 de noviembre de 2019. [28]
El 27 de diciembre de 2019, un hombre ingresó en el Hospital Avicenne y se le realizó una prueba de gripe, que dio negativo. El 3 de mayo de 2020, Yves Cohen, jefe de reanimación del hospital, dijo que, tras una nueva prueba de la muestra de diciembre del hombre, había dado positivo para COVID-19. Cohen dijo que era demasiado pronto para saber si el hombre había sido el "paciente cero" de Francia. [10] [11]
El 23 de enero de 2020, la oficina del Ministro de Salud francés publicó un análisis de la situación, [29] y el mismo día Air France suspendió sus vuelos desde y hacia Wuhan , y redujo la frecuencia de sus vuelos desde y hacia Beijing y Shanghai. [30]
El 24 de enero de 2020 se confirmó en Burdeos el primer caso de COVID-19 en Europa . El paciente, un ciudadano francés de 48 años procedente de China, que llegó a Francia el 22 de enero de 2020, fue hospitalizado en el Centro Hospitalario Universitario de Burdeos. Fue puesto en aislamiento y las autoridades intentaron rastrear a las personas que habían estado en contacto con él. [31] El mismo día en que Agnès Buzyn dijo que "los riesgos de propagación del virus en Francia son extremadamente bajos", [32] se confirmaron dos casos más en París: una pareja que había regresado de China el 18 de enero de 2020. [2] [33] [34] El hombre de 31 años y su pareja de 30 años, ambos de Wuhan, dieron positivo para SARS-CoV-2 y fueron hospitalizados en el Hospital Bichat-Claude Bernard de París. El 26 de enero de 2020, Buzyn declaró que el gobierno francés tenía millones de mascarillas que podrían distribuirse a la población en caso de necesidad. [35] [36]
El 28 de enero de 2020, un turista chino de 80 años de Hubei dio positivo y fue hospitalizado en el Hospital Bichat-Claude Bernard. [4] Al día siguiente, su hija de 50 años dio positivo y fue ingresada en el mismo hospital. [37] La muerte del hombre de 80 años el 14 de febrero de 2020 marcó la primera muerte por COVID-19 fuera de Asia. [5]
On 30 January 2020, a Paris doctor who had come into contact with a Chinese tourist whose infection was confirmed upon her return to China was confirmed positive for COVID-19.[38] The same day, Air France suspended all flights to mainland China, except for a single daily flight to Beijing and Shanghai.[39]
On 31 January 2020, Marie Fontanel, the President counselor for solidarity and health, quit her job to help her husband in the coming municipal elections. She would be replaced only one month later.[40] The same day, all the countries of the Schengen Area, except France, suspended the issuing of visas in China.[41]
Les Contamines-Montjoie cluster
On 8 February 2020, then-Minister of Health Agnès Buzyn confirmed five new cases which originated from a group of people who were on a holiday in Les Contamines-Montjoie, Haute-Savoie.[42] They contracted the infection from a British national who had attended a conference in Singapore a few days before.[43][44] Another British national, who had stayed in the same chalet as the five other individuals at Les Contamines-Montjoie, tested positive for COVID-19.[45] On 18 February 2020, Minister of Health, Olivier Véran – who replaced Agnès Buzyn after she stood down to run in the Paris mayoral election for La République En Marche! – announced that only four people remained infected in France. These four, all British nationals, three from the first group of Les Contamines-Montjoie and a fourth case which was discovered later, underwent quarantine at the hospital.[46] The last remaining British national was discharged six days later.[47]
Sundry cases
In late February 2020, multiple cases appeared in France, notably within three new clusters, in Oise,[48]Haute-Savoie,[49] and Morbihan.[50]
Number of cases (blue) and number of deaths (red) on a logarithmic scale.
On 25 February 2020, a French teacher from Crépy-en-Valois died;[51] on the same day, a Chinese man who had returned from China was confirmed as a carrier of SARS-CoV-2, but showed signs of recent recovery. A 64-year-old man from La Balme-de-Sillingy, who returned from a trip to Lombardy on 15 February, tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 and was treated in Centre Hospitalier Annecy-Genevois, Épagny-Metz-Tessy.[52][53][54] His wife also tested positive and was admitted to the same hospital as her husband.[55][56]
On 26 February 2020, a 36-year-old man, who had made multiple trips to Lombardy, tested positive and was treated in Nouvel Hôpital Civil, Strasbourg.[57][58][59][60] A 60-year-old French teacher from Oise was first admitted to Creil Hospital, then transferred to Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital, Paris, where he died a few hours later.[60][61][62] A 55-year-old man from Oise was admitted to the intensive care unit at CHU Amiens-Picardie, Amiens.[63]
The same day, during an audition by the French Senate, Jérôme Salomon, the French Directeur général de la Santé, declared that "A mask shortage is not a subject".[64]
On 27 February 2020, the Minister of Health Olivier Véran announced that France had 38 cases of COVID-19 on its soil, with 20 new cases detected including a cluster in the Oise caused by close contacts with patients that were infected in Egypt.[65]
On 28 February 2020, one new case was confirmed, a 23-year-old fashion student from Nice who had recently returned from Milan.[66]Landes confirmed the first case of COVID-19 in the region, a woman who tested positive at Centre Hospitalier de Mont-de-Marsan and underwent isolation.[67]
Mulhouse cluster
A religious week in Mulhouse that took place from 17 to 24 February 2020 was involved in the rapid spread of the virus to eastern France and beyond. Linked cases developed from early March in Orléans, Besançon, Saint-Lô, Belfort, Dijon, Mâcon, Agen, Briançon, Paris, Corsica, and French Guiana.[68][9]
The annual gathering of the Christian Open Door Church between 17 and 24 February 2020 in Mulhouse which was attended by about 2,500 people became a significant cluster in the spread of coronavirus in France.[8] Alerted by a parishioner and by 18 family members who tested positive on 1 March, the pastor notified the health authorities.[9][69] A man who lived alone in Nîmes – and who had driven back alone from Mulhouse and who otherwise had no close contacts – tested positive, and the flurry of reported cases locally on 2 March brought the existence of a Mulhouse cluster to light.[9]
On 3 March 2020, seven participants in the evangelical rally – including five members of a local family and a general practitioner from Bernwiller – had tested positive for the virus.[70][71][72] Starting on the evening of 3 March 2020, the local helpline of the Emergency medical services recorded an unprecedented flood of distress calls, from people who had attended the gathering.[8] According to an investigative report by Radio France, at least half of the attendees had contracted the virus; in an interview on France Info, the pastor of the church admitted that 2000 attendees may have been infected.[8] It is said that no specific health advice existed in light of the threat at the time.[9][69] The source of the initial infection has not been determined; furthermore, as different attendees were welcomed each day, and due to the absence of any attendance register, epidemiological follow-up subsequent to the discovery of attendees who tested positive was rendered impossible.[9] Even President Emmanuel Macron had spent several hours electioneering on 18 February 2020 in the Bourtzwiller district close to the church. It was only on 2 March 2020 when the health authorities woke up to data that there was an outbreak all over the country linked to the religious meeting, by which time secondary infections had spread out of control.[9]
A Radio France investigation identified that one nurse who had attended the event was the origin of a subsequent cluster in Strasbourg at her workplace at the Strasbourg University Hospitals involving some 250 hospital colleagues.[8] Five returnees from the Mulhouse rally were confirmed in French Guiana on 4 March 2020.[73] On 5 March 2020, a retired couple from Lot-et-Garonne and another person from Deux-Sèvres who had attended the same Mulhouse gathering were declared positive for the disease.[74] Five new cases from this cluster were registered in Corsica,[75] and three in Normandy.[76] On 6 March 2020, with 81 cases that had been detected in the previous 24 hours in Mulhouse, the departmental prefect declared that the means were no longer sufficient to systematically screen all suspected cases; only the most serious patients were to be hospitalised.[77] The department of Haut-Rhin, in which Mulhouse is situated, imposed strict limits on the gatherings; all schools were closed henceforth.[78]
Repatriations
On 31 January 2020, approximately 220 French returnees from China landed at Istres-Le Tubé Air Base, aboard an Airbus A340 from Esterel 3/60 transport squadron stationed at Creil Air Base.[79] These evacuees were quarantined in a holiday camp in Carry-le-Rouet.[80][81][82] A second wave of repatriation took place on 2 February 2020 when 65 evacuated French nationals on board a chartered Airbus A380-800 Hi Fly Malta landed at the Istres air base.[83] A third repatriation of 38 French occurred on 8 February 2020 under the auspices of the British government.[84]
On 21 February 2020, a further thirty French people who had been staying in Wuhan were repatriated to France and placed in quarantine at Branville, in the Calvados.[85][86] On 13 March 2020, twelve trainee gendarmes at the School of Gendarmerie of Tulle (Corrèze) saw their internship in Spain terminated, with them and their 20 companions repatriated.[87] They had been confined from 10 March 2020 following the positive test results of two of their Spanish cohort.[88]
Municipal elections
The first round of municipal elections in France took place on 15 March 2020 against the backdrop of the government decision to move to Stage III of measures to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. Stringent restrictions on public life involving the closure of bars, restaurants and other businesses considered non-essential were set to begin the following day.[89] Then-Health Minister, Agnès Buzyn, resigned on 16 February 2020 to run for the Paris mayor for La République En Marche!.[90] She is succeeded by Olivier Véran, a neurologist. The decision to press ahead with the election was justified as being critical to democratic life in the country, despite concerns about how a second round could be held as the toll of infections and deaths continued to rise.[89] In the end, the turnout of registered voters was 40%, lower than achieved in 1971 – the previous record lowest turnout.[89]
A number of communes in various parts of the country reported that despite the safety measures put in place by the government, some candidates and assessors had subsequently developed symptoms or tested positive for the virus.[91][92][93]
Lockdown measures
In Noisy-le-Grand in the suburbs of Paris, strolling along the river Marne has been forbidden "until further notice"
On 11 March 2020, the government named 11 prominent scientists to a committee to advise on scientific matters pertaining to the epidemic in France.[94] On 17 March 2020, the Direction générale de la Santé (DGS) asked Santé publique France to buy urgently 1,1 million of FFP2 masks.[95]
On 12 March 2020, Emmanuel Macron announced in a televised address that all schools and universities across the country would be closed.[citation needed]
On 16 March 2020 (one day after the first round of the municipal elections), Emmanuel Macron announced the beginning of a lockdown period from 17 March 2020 at noon.[96]
After the announcement of the lockdown, the Fédération Française du Bâtiment decided to stop non-essential work because of the danger for construction workers. On 19 March 2020, Muriel Pénicaud, the French Minister of Labour, criticized this decision, saying that it showed a lack of civic spirit. On 20 March 2020, the President of the federation replied in an open letter that what the Minister said was "scandalous".[97][98] After several days, an agreement allowing a few construction sites to reopen was signed.[99]
April–May 2020: First peak
During early April 2020, the numbers of deaths from coronavirus increased dramatically, with more than 10,000 people dying during that period of time.
The lockdown had initially been planned for 15 days, then for 30 days, but on 13 April 2020, Macron announced that the lockdown period would be extended until 11 May 2020.[12]
On 4 May 2020, scientists retesting old samples found that a man had been infected with COVID-19 on 27 December 2019, almost a month before France reported its first case. The patient had not travelled abroad which sparked fears that the coronavirus might have been spreading in Europe earlier than leaders had thought.
On 11 May 2020, as daily cases had dropped to under 100 per day, primary schools and some middle schools were allowed to reopen in what was the first steps to reopening the economy.
On 28 May 2020, Édouard Philippe announced that a travel ban of 100 km (62 miles) would be lifted on 2 June 2020. Cafes, bars and restaurants were also allowed to reopen on the same day. This easing of restrictions did not apply to Paris.
June–July 2020: Easing of restrictions
On 14 June 2020, Cafes, Restaurants and Pubs were allowed to reopen in Paris.
On 22 June 2020, Cinemas, holiday centres, sports halls for group sports, all crèches, schools, and collèges (middle school) were allowed to reopen in what was the third stage of reopening the economy.
On 1 July 2020, France reopened its borders with non-European Union countries.
On 3 July 2020, Philippe resigned as Prime Minister and was replaced by Jean Castex. Castex had previously been appointed coordinator of the phasing out of the lockdown (confinement) implemented in France.
On 10 July 2020, the State of Health Emergency in France came to an end, essentially ending the lockdown. However, there were still restrictions on social distancing.
On 15 July 2020, Olivier Véran announced that from 24 July 2020, face coverings would be compulsory in all public indoor spaces and some outdoor public areas such as the Eiffel Tower.
August–October 2020
During August 2020, cases began to rise again. In the week ending 16 August 2020, more than 10,000 cases were reported during that week.
On 28 August 2020, France set a new record for the number of new cases in a single 24-hour period with 7,379 new cases reported. With this in mind, Paris made it compulsory to wear face coverings in most public spaces.
On 12 September 2020, France recorded more than 10,000 new cases in a single 24-hour period for the first time. Deaths had also begun to rise again, with 154 recorded on 18 September 2020, the highest since 17 May 2020 and the first time daily deaths increased by more than 100 since 16 June 2020.
On 5 October 2020, Paris once again shut its pubs, restaurants and cafes over a resurgence in cases, the second city to do so after Marseille. However, the government kept insisting that they would not impose a second nationwide lockdown.
On 10 October 2020, France recorded its then biggest daily increase in new cases with 26,896 new infections. President Macron announced in an interview on prime-time television on 14 October 2020 that in view of the vertiginous spread of the disease in several major cities, there would be 9 pm–6am curfews imposed in areas which have become hotspots for the virus in the country, to last for 4 weeks; the financial aid measures and furloughing scheme for affected business would be re-introduced.[100]
On 15 October 2020, France became the first country in Europe to record more than 30,000 cases in a day, with 30,621 cases reported. This increase pushed France over the 800,000 mark in terms of cases, only the third country in Europe to reach this figure.[101]
On 22 October 2020, Prime Minister of FranceJean Castex extended the overnight curfew to 38 more departments as cases surged, affecting 46 million people (67% population).[102]
On 23 October 2020, France's confirmed cases of COVID-19 passed 1 million. The total number of confirmed cases was 1,048,075, with an increase of 42,032, the highest daily rise in a 24-hour period.
On 25 October 2020, daily cases topped 50,000 for the first time, with a total of 52,013 new cases reported.
On 28 October 2020, Macron announced on a televised address that France would enter a second nationwide lockdown from 30 October 2020 that would last until at least 1 December 2020. Non-essential businesses such as pubs and restaurants would close but schools and factories would remain open.[103]
November 2020
On 5 November 2020, Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo announced further restrictions in Paris after some citizens were caught disobeying existing rules. These included requiring food shops to close at 10:00 pm to prevent people from gathering there.[104]
On 12 November 2020, French Prime Minister Jean Castex said in a press conference that any loosening of restrictions at the start of December would be "strictly limited", meaning businesses like restaurants, bars and sports halls would remain closed. He also stated that 1 in 4 deaths in France were at that time due to COVID-19.[105]
December 2020
On 17 December 2020, Macron tested positive for COVID-19.[106]
On 27 December 2020, a 78-year-old woman became the first person in France to get vaccinated against COVID-19. She received the first dose of Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine at the René-Muret Hospital in Sevran, Seine-Saint-Denis.[107]
2021
On 31 March 2021, in a televised address to the nation, President Macron announced a third national lockdown to begin on 3 April 2021, and to last for at least a month. Macron warned that the country would "lose control if we do not move now".[108] Principal measures announced included the closure of non-essential shops during the national lockdown and the suspension of attendance at schools for three weeks.[108] During the national lockdown, domestic travel was banned and a nationwide curfew from 7pm-6am remained in place.[108]

The first case in Wallis and Futuna was reported on 16 October 2020.
Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier
The Ministry of Armed Forces reported infections on board one of its ships on 8 April 2020. After about 40 crew members aboard the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle showed symptoms, the ship cut short its mission and returned to its home port of Toulon on 12 April 2020, 11 days earlier than planned.[208][209] The ministry initially announced that out of 66 personnel tested, 50 were positive.[210][211] Three sailors were evacuated by air to Saint Anne Army Teaching Hospital [fr].[210][212] On 18 April 2020, the final count of infected crew members was announced as 1,046 with nearly 50 percent diagnosed as asymptomatic.[213]
The carrier arrived in Toulon on the afternoon of 12 April 2020, when a 14-day quarantine for the crew began. The source of the infection remains unknown, as the last port of call had been Brest from 13 to 15 March.[214][215][216][217][excessive citations]
There was criticism in France the carrier mission was not interrupted after the first cases were detected,[218] and rumours that the carrier had asked permission to interrupt its mission in mid March during its stopover in Brest, which had been refused. Florence Parly, the French Minister of Armed Forces, said that these rumours were false when questioned by French deputies.[219]

Closures
On 28 February 2020, the fashion designer agnès b. cancelled fashion shows in Paris Fashion Week, which had been scheduled to run until 3 March.[220] The following day, the Paris half marathon scheduled for Sunday 1 March 2020, with 44,000 participants was cancelled as one of a number of measures announced by health minister Olivier Véran (which also included the banning of all indoor public gatherings of more than 5,000 people).[221]
In a televised statement on 12 March 2020, President of the Republic Emmanuel Macron decreed the closure of nurseries, schools, colleges, high schools and universities.[222] The Ministry of Health requested the deprogramming of non-urgent surgical procedures.[222] From the next day, gatherings of more than 100 people were prohibited.[223]
Starting from 23 March 2020,[228] everyone in a public space was required to carry a self-completed declaration, known as an "Attestation de déplacement dérogatoire", which stated one's reasons for being out in public. Without this declaration individuals could be fined if found engaging in non-essential movement.[229] Acceptable reasons for being outside included: shopping for food and essential needs, traveling to and from a place of work, if the work could not be performed at home, accessing necessary healthcare, traveling for essential family matters including childcare or care of the elderly or to assist vulnerable people, exercising within 1 km of the home for up to 1 hour during permitted hours, for an administrative legal matter (such as a summons), or at the direction of an administrative authority. Initially it was necessary to carry a paper copy of the declaration but later a QR code based electronic equivalent for smartphones became an option. Most of the requirements of these measures expired on 11 May 2020 with the expiration of the general stay-at-home order however new requirements subsequently came into effect limiting general travel to a range of 100 km from one's residence without a permit. The 100 km limitation remained in effect until 2 June.[citation needed]
Police around the country set up road blocks to check those outside their homes had good reason and that their exemption declarations were in order. Up to 7 April 2020, more than 8 million checks had been made, and half a million fines had been issued for failure to respect rules of confinement. Police report receiving hundreds of telephone denunciations from citizens complaining of their neighbours walking their dogs too often; a woman also denounced her husband for going out to see his mistress.[230]
On 28 September 2020, according to an Amnesty International report French authorities wrongly punished thousands of peaceful protesters under draconian laws in pre and post COVID-19 crackdowns. Many people were arbitrarily fined, arrested, and detained for peaceful protests.[231]
Unemployment
President Macron announced on 12 March 2020 that companies could postpone the payment of social security contributions and taxes due in March without justification, formalities, or penalties. An "exceptional and massive" mechanism of state-funded furloughing (partial lay-offs) was envisaged.[222] Employees were encouraged to remote work where possible.[232] During the second half of March, 4 million French workers applied for temporary unemployment benefits.[233][234][235] As of April 2020, approximately 8.6 million employees in France were furloughed. The total cost of the operation for the three months from March was €24 billion.[236]
The French state, which has hitherto borne 100% of the costs of furloughing, reduced the indemnity to 85% from 1 June 2020, with businesses footing 15% of the bill; employees will receive 70% of their gross pay, or around 84% of their net salary. Employees in sectors of activity related to restaurants, culture and tourism, which remain subject to forced closure, continue to receive 100% state indemnity.[236] According to the French statistical agency INSEE, 3% of the French labor force frequently teleworks. 2% of French workers travel fewer than 5 kilometers from their home to work, and 8% must travel more than 50 km.[237]
On 5 July 2020, a 59-year-old male bus driver in Bayonne was left brain dead after being attacked by passengers who refused to pay for tickets and to wear face masks on his bus. Five people were arrested;[241] two men were charged with attempted murder, two others with non-assistance to a person in danger and a fifth with attempting to hide a suspect.[247] The driver died on 10 July, five days after the attack.[248]
Strategic stocks of masks in 2009 under Roselyne Bachelot, minister of health from May 2007 to November 2010, amounted to 1 billion surgical masks and 600 million FFP2 masks.[249] According to the French government, a change of doctrine had occurred upon recommendations from the General Health Directorate in July 2011, the decision was taken then to allow depletion of strategic stocks on the grounds of cost of maintaining the stockpile – including arbitrating the cost of obsolescence.[250][249] Stock of surgical masks and FFP2 masks in late 2019 had dropped to 140 million and zero units respectively.[249]
Then-health minister Agnès Buzyn declared on 26 January that there would be no shortage of masks in France during the outbreak.[250] Later on 26 February, Jérôme Salomon, the French Directeur général de la Santé, declared during a debate by the French Senate that "A mask shortage is not a subject".[64] However, health professionals complained that they were ill-equipped to face the crisis, due to inadequate stocks of protective equipment.[250] On 3 March, with France still facing a shortage, President Macron commandeered all masks produced and stored in the country for distribution to health professionals and people who had contracted the virus.[249][251]
France was subsequently accused of seizing medical equipment intended for other nations. On 5 March 2020, French authorities confiscated four million masks from the Swedish health care company Mölnlycke, which were in a distribution centre in Lyon and destined for Spain and Italy. Two weeks later, after pressure from the Swedish government, France released the masks, allowing two million of them through, with the rest remaining in France either to be used there or for re-export.[252] Mölnlycke estimated that a total of "six million masks were seized by the French. All had been contracted for, including a million masks each for France, Italy and Spain. The rest were destined for Belgium, the Netherlands, Portugal and Switzerland."[253]
On 27 April 2020, it was revealed by Libération that, contrary to government claims in March, a change of doctrine was not the main cause of the mask shortage, and that the government had been fully informed as early as 2018 that strategic reserves were depleted.[254]
On 8 May 2020, the government announced that 200 million masks per week would be available starting on 11 May: 100 million for medical workers and 100 million for the general public.[255]
Hydroxychloroquine controversy
On 17 March 2020, Didier Raoult of the Mediterranean infectious and tropical disease institute in Marseille and member of the scientific council advising the government announced in a YouTube video entitled "Coronavirus: endgame!" that a trial by his team involving 24 patients supported the claim that hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin were effective in treating COVID-19.[256][257][258] The design of the study as well as its conclusions are controversial and generally viewed as flawed and inconclusive.[259][258] Raoult has nevertheless offered testing of those with symptoms at his institute and prescribed hydroxychloroquine for those who tested positive.[259] The French Health Minister, Olivier Véran, announced that "new tests will now go ahead to evaluate the results of Raoult, to independently replicate the trials and ensure the findings are scientifically robust, before any possible decision might be made to roll any treatment out to the wider public".[260][261]
On 30 March 2020, hospitals reported that there had been two dozen cases with three deaths of individuals who were suspected of self-medication with Plaquenil – a brand name for hydroxychloroquine. Drug safety agency (ANSM) warned against potentially fatal side effects, notably cardiac arrhythmia and heart attack. The agency banned its use, even with prescriptions, outside of hospitals, and in clinical trials, while stepping up its surveillance.[262]
Raoult later resigned from the committee, and defended chloroquine as a drug that has been safely used for 80 years.[94]
On 3 December 2021, the Order of Physicians in France gave Raoult a blame for promoting hydroxychloroquine "without scientific data".[263]
Chinese Embassy article
In mid-April 2020, the Chinese embassy published an online article entitled "Restoring distorted facts – Observations of a Chinese diplomat posted to Paris", which criticised western countries' slow response and accused workers at nursing homes in France of "abandoning their posts overnight ... and leaving their residents to die of hunger and disease". French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian summoned the Chinese ambassador, and said that the remarks were not in line with the "quality of the bilateral relationship" between France and China.[264]
Cooperation with neighbouring states
On 29 February 2020, Monaco announced the first COVID-19 case, a man who was admitted to the Princess Grace Hospital Centre, then transferred to Nice University Hospital in France.[196] Also on 29 February 2020, three French nationals and one Italian resident of Ain were being hospitalised in Lausanne or other places in Switzerland.[265]
On 22 March 2020, Switzerland announced that three hospitals near the Alsace region had agreed to take in any French-based patients after Alsace officials made a request for assistance.[266] Patients from Grand Est were also taken into hospitals in Baden-Württemberg, Rhineland-Palatinate, Saarland, and Hesse in Germany.
Up to 1 April 2020 over 100 COVID-19 patients from Alsace had been transferred for treatment to Germany, Luxembourg, and Switzerland.[267]
Statistics
(Source: official daily statistics from Minister of Health[268])
Apart from the Petite Couronne,[269] cases have been detected either by a late discovery[clarification needed] or by a local infection in the following departments: Gironde,[270] Haute-Savoie,[49] Bas-Rhin,[61] Val-d'Oise,[175] Hérault,[183] Finistère,[165] Lyon Metropolis,[153] Côte-d'Or,[160] Alpes-Maritimes,[193] Seine-Maritime,[179] Loire-Atlantique,[271] Ain,[272] Landes,[67] Charente-Maritime,[273] Mayenne,[192] Ille-et-Vilaine,[274] Morbihan,[163] Haut-Rhin,[170] Eure,[180] Sarthe,[191] Gard,[187] Drôme,[157] Saône-et-Loire,[162] all the departments of the region Hauts-de-France, except the Nord,[275] and in the overseas territories of Saint Barthélemy and Saint Martin.[207]
Simulation statistics
Simulation studies helped convince the government that taking no action would result in large numbers of civilian casualties. In such a case between 30,000 and 100,000 more ICU beds would be required in the hospitals. In France there are 5,000 reanimation service [fr] beds and 7,364 ICU beds. These simulations were provided by Neil Ferguson, epidemiologist at the Imperial College London.[285]
