People in France are being advised to self-isolate and wear masks, as an expert warns that “Covid is not gone”, and hospital cases continue to rise.

“People thought that Covid was gone, but that’s not the case,” said infectious diseases expert Dr Benjamin Davido, adding that he believes that people should still self-isolate in the event that they have Covid symptoms and/or test positive.

He issued the warning ahead of two events that will see people congregate in large numbers: the legislative elections, and the Paris Olympics.

His comments come after figures from the health authority show a 52% increase week-on-week in hospital emergency visits for Covid-related issues.

Similarly, the World Health Organization has said that Covid is “continuing to spread and evolve”, with new variants becoming better at ‘escaping’ vaccination coverage.
