Eighth wave, new variant… The Covid-19 did not take a vacation this summer, and its return to school is likely to be eventful. In the columns of Le Parisien, Brigitte Autran, president of the Committee for monitoring and anticipating health risks, erects the scenario of an epidemic resumption this fall as being the most probable.
“We are not diviners, but it is almost certain that there will be a wave in the fall. Today, we must move towards living with it. Be careful, this does not mean accepting the dead or the seriousness of the disease. On the contrary. And to avoid them, there are still levers to activate”, she explains to our colleagues.
