In France, the second wave of the epidemic continues to progress in many territories. Since January 16, 2021, the curfew has been brought forward to 6 p.m. instead of 8 p.m. The health authorities have defined the incidence rate by department as a determining criterion for whether the measures should be tightened or reduced. To make life easier for Ile-de-France residents, here is the map of the incidence rate by department in the Île-de-France region and in Paris for Friday, April 23, 2021, determined from data from CovidTracker and Data.gouv.

How is the incidence rate of each of departments of Île-de-France ? The densest region of France, theIle-de-France was hit hard by the first and then the second wave of the Covid-19.

At the time of the second phase of containment relief, the virus continues to gain ground and is still as threatening despite the efforts made and the restrictive measures adopted as a result.

As a result, the government and health authorities are basing themselves on very specific criteria to determine how well the virus is circulating in each of the French departments: the incidence rate of residents of all age groups, and the incidence rate in the elderly, the most vulnerable to Covid-19.

This Tuesday, April 20, 2021 (consolidated data), this incidence rate amounts on average to 323.60 in France. On Ile-de-France, this same rate goes beyond the bar set by the government, reaching 503,00.

Too, Public health France specifies that this incidence rate represents the number of people, over a rolling week, tested positive (RT-PCR and antigenic tests combined) for the first time in more than 60 days compared to the size of the population. It is expressed for 100,000 inhabitants and allows you to compare geographic areas with each other.

The incidence rate may fluctuate depending on screening activities and results reporting deadlines. Each department is classified according to three colors: in red the departments with high incidence rate, in orange those with a average incidence rate, in green, the departments with a low incidence rate.
