We will have to get used to living with regular waves of Covid-19 contamination. This is the message that François Braun, guest on LCI, wanted to convey on Wednesday morning. Asked about the epidemic situation in France, the Minister of Health estimated that the French would have to get used to living “with these resurgences of the virus”. “Other waves will probably come back with probably another variant”, he warned while justifying the lifting of health restrictions in France – such as the wearing of a compulsory mask – to fight against the Covid.
“You cannot rule life permanently”, said François Braun. “We must make the French people responsible by telling them ‘when it starts again, I’m in a place where there are a lot of people, I’m in a crowded place, I put on a mask and I protect the most fragile’“.
“We must be extremely humble in the face of this type of pandemic”, recalled the emergency doctor. “We can roughly see its overall kinetics (its evolution, editor’s note), but we are not sure. The overall kinetics are rather reassuring, even if we come out of this seventh wave, (…) and to live with , we have to take good reflexes and I believe that empowering our fellow citizens is something that is normal”, said the minister.
