More French schools closed after virus cases detected

PARIS - More French schools have closed after multiple students tested positive for Covid-19, while a further 2,100 individual classes have also been called off, Education Minister Jean-Michel Blanquer said on Wednesday .

He noted that the closures represent just a small fraction of the 60,000 schools across France, calling the beginning of the new school year"the best possible given the health crisis". The University of Rennes in western France also suspended classes for second- and third-year medical students this week after 83 tested positive.
