France warned it could lose control of Covid-19 'at any moment'

French police officers advise people to wear face masks in Biarritz on Monday.

“The balance is fragile and we can change course at any time to a less controlled scenario like in Spain, for example,” it said. At the height of the outbreak in April, more than 7,100 people were receiving intensive care in French hospitals, which had 5,000 intensive care beds available when the crisis hit.

Paris and the southern city of Toulouse joined the ranks of local authorities taking steps to oblige people to wear masks outdoors in certain situations, on top of the national requirement to cover up in shops and other shared spaces indoors. It urged the authorities to put in place “prevention plans” for the largest and most densely-populated metropolitan areas, with localised home-confinement strategies to be tightened or loosened in step with epidemic development.
