Lhe incidence rate of coronavirus cases in Calaisis continues to increase, even if the territory is far from that displayed in Dunkirk, reconfigured during the weekend. Calaisis now has 369 cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the agglomeration community against 352 the previous week. In Dunkirk, this figure climbs to 910 cases.
In the sector, the agglomeration of Audruicq has the highest incidence rate (418 cases per 100,000 inhabitants), followed by Terre des Deux Caps (368) and Pays d’Opale (233) .
This Friday, February 26, a meeting took place between local elected officials, health officials and the prefect of Pas-de-Calais Louis Le Franc. No measure decision has been taken, but this increase in the incidence rate (now at 386 at the department level) confirms the wish of the mayor of Calais, Natacha Bouchart, to see the measures be reinforced as soon as possible. . In our columns this week, the councilor put on the table the idea of a ban on going more than 30 km from his home in order to limit flows between the main towns in the region. Second track, if Calais were to exceed 500 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, weekend containment is deemed essential by the mayor. Still, new meetings are scheduled for next week. No implementation of any new measures will take place before the weekend of March 6.
