Inflation at 6%, growth at 2.6%.
According to figures published by INSEE, inflation rose to 6% over one year in January.

As for growth, it will reach 2.6% in 2022, albeit with a slowdown in the fourth quarter due to a sharp decline in household consumption.

This is the end of “test, trace, isolate”.
As other countries have already done, France is significantly reducing the rules relating to Covid-19 from tomorrow.
Several rules will disappear, starting with that of isolating yourself if you test positive and that of getting tested if you have been around a positive person.
In addition, the “tracing” of contact cases will no longer be provided by Health Insurance.
So many changes that risk making it less reliable to monitor the number of positive cases detected each day, so few people get tested.
However, this indicator has always made it possible to see an epidemic wave arrive as soon as possible.
Are we taking a risk?
Scientists are divided.
