Covid-19: Kylian Mbappé urges young people to "be careful"

2020-10-01T18:09:16.052Z


LE SCAN SPORT - In a story on his Instagram account, the Paris SG striker wanted to send a message of caution about the spread of the virus.


While the Minister of Health Olivier Véran spoke on Thursday to provide an update on the evolution of the Covid-19 epidemic, in particular by evoking the possibility of seeing Paris and its inner suburbs be placed in the zone of maximum alert “from Monday”, Kylian Mbappé decided to use his notoriety, and his 43.5 million subscribers on Instagram, to publish a video on the subject.

"There you go, just for a little message to tell you about the complicated situation with Covid-19," he explains, wearing a "We care for all" T-shirt.

“I know everyone would like to go back to their old life.

Me first, I would like to see you again at the stadium because we miss you very much.

I would especially like to speak to young people: take care of yourself, your parents, your loved ones.

It's really important because they need it.

For that, you have to respect barrier gestures because you can be positive without knowing it, which was my case.

And then you are likely to be able to pass it on to other people, so be really careful. ”

A message that is in line with that of the Minister of Health who declared, more or less at the same time: "Watch out for you.

Don't invite 20 buddies to party.

I am convinced that young people know that there is a risk for the people they love.

Youth must show exemplary solidarity ”.

This exit of Mbappé could also be explained by the fact, as L'Equipe revealed in early May, that the French international saw some of his relatives being "tragically closely affected by the coronavirus."
