La vérité d’aujourd’hui n’est pas forcément vraie demain

Day 58 in Carcassonne and 4th day of controlled de-confinement

🎶 A  favorite oldie to brighten up the day and bring back memories 🎶

Today’s edition will be short and sweet, most of the websites I use to collect data have not updated yesterday’s figures. Very strange indeed. I shall check later again and update if needed.

Information & News + Tips

▶︎  Academie Française

They decided yesterday that Covid 19 is a feminin noun since the nucleus is an equivalent of the French feminine noun disease,” the French Academy said.

▶︎  10 or more?

Any gathering, meeting or activity in a non-professional capacity on the public highway or in a public place, involving the simultaneous presence of more than ten persons, is prohibited.

The Interior Ministry confirms that the decree adopted last Sunday “does not prohibit gatherings of more than ten people in private places”.

But it calls for vigilance and defers to the responsibility of all, specifying that “hygiene measures must be applied in all places and in all circumstances, including in private places. »

In short, to gather more than 10 people in the street, on the beaches or in parks is no, but nothing prevents you from having parties at home. So it’s allowed but not encouraged.

▶︎  Beaches

The decision of the Prefect of the Aude is expected this week, about the beaches that could reopen.
