PARIS: France’s two-week lockdown to try to stem the coronavirus is likely to be extended, officials said on Thursday, as the interior minister blasted “idiots” who are flouting the home confinement rules.

Some officials have called for even stricter limits and Paris police are mulling closing riverside walkways – a move already enforced in Bordeaux. “It is likely that it is indeed necessary to extend in order for the braking to be sufficient,” Chene said. Access to the entire Mediterranean coast was also closed because “We are seeing too many people on the beaches”, regional prefect Pierre Dartout told AFP.

The minister also railed against thefts of surgical masks from hospitals and said the authorities would deal harshly with anyone found to be involved in the “despicable” illegal trade of such protective equipment.
