France recorded its first case of the new variant of coronavirus, as the number of cases and deaths from Covid-19 mounted in the country, increasing concerns of a new wave of the virus hitting the eurozone's second-biggest economy.

The French health ministry said a Frenchman who recently arrived back in France from London had tested positive for the new variant of the coronavirus.

British Health Secretary Matt Hancock had said on December 14 that a spike in Covid cases in the United Kingdom might have been linked to the new variant of the virus in the country. Countries about the world have in recent days closed their borders to both Britain and SA after the identification of cases of the new, fast-spreading variant of the coronavirus in those countries.
