A curve that still does not go down.

This Sunday, Public Health France counted 141 new deaths due to Covid-19 and 16,642 new contaminations in its daily report.

In detail, these 141 deaths occurred in hospitals, bringing the total of deaths linked to the new coronavirus to 70,283 since the start of the epidemic in France.

25,235 patients are currently hospitalized following an infection, including 2,766 in intensive care units, against 24,526 hospitalized patients including 2,620 severe cases seven days ago.

Santé Publique France also counts 16,642 new positive tests in the last 24 hours, against 15,944 cases seven days ago.

More than 422,000 vaccinations

This Sunday, the Directorate General of Health counted a total of 422,127 people vaccinated against Covid-19, including 77 87 in Ile-de-France, 45,378 in Auvergne Rhône-Alpes, and 44,767 in Nouvelle-Aquitaine.

High figures linked to the more numerous populations in these regions: in proportion, it is Normandy (946 vaccinations per 100,000 inhabitants) and Bourgogne Franche-Comté (883 per 100,000) which vaccinate the most.

Since Saturday, the entire territory must follow a curfew from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. to counter the spread of the coronavirus at the start of the year.

The effect of the Christmas holidays on the evolution of the epidemic should be assessed this week.

It also remains to be seen what impact on the epidemic will have the variants initially detected in the United Kingdom and South Africa, deemed more contagious, and already detected in France.
