With 24.9 positive cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the department, the situation worries the authorities.
The news is not good. According to our information, the departmental authorities are concerned about the evolution of the coronavirus data. Indeed, at the Hérault level, the incidence rate is rising again. Admittedly, we are still far from the levels at the start of the year which led to the implementation of strict measures, but by going back above the bar of 20 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, even standing at 24.7 this Tuesday, this rate requires increased monitoring.
The concern of the delta variant
Another element of concern, “the increasingly frequent detection in positive tests of a mutation, often correlated with the presence of the delta variant”. “This does not prejudge anything good in the medium to short term,” concludes the information sent to elected officials on Tuesday.
