In addition, Guyana and Mayotte are classified as “territories in a state of health emergency”.
What criteria?
An area of active circulation of the virus (in red on the map) is characterized mainly by an incidence rate greater than 50 per 100,000 inhabitants and an unfavorable epidemic dynamic (example: the rapid increase in the incidence rate).
However, by anticipation (example: if the department has an incidence rate very close to 50 per 100,000 inhabitants and increasing) and for reasons of territorial cohesion (example: if the department is close to another department with a high incidence rate), the department can be classified as an active traffic zone from an incidence rate greater than 30 per 100,000 inhabitants. The decision to move to an active traffic zone is taken by decree of the Prime Minister.
Mayotte and Guyana are not in red but in purple because they are still in a state of health emergency until October 30, 2020.
