France, 9 people flee quarantine center - Nine people, including six members of the same family, have fled a mandatory quarantine center on the island of La Riunion, a French department in the Indian Ocean. The local prefecture spoke of an "irresponsible act". These centers were opened on March 30 for returning residents and all those who have a pressing need to reach the island, after the medical community estimated that 2 weeks at home was not enough to prevent the spread of coronavirus. The nine ran away because - they explained - they were in "unlivable" conditions, but according to the prefecture, these people had been assigned "recognized high-end hotel rooms". They have been reported and could also be prosecuted criminally.
