To stop the new coronavirus epidemic, all schools and childcare facilities have been closed for three days until further notice. The President of the Republic also announced, during his speech, new containment measures, this Monday, March 26. This system, put in place by the government throughout France, for at least 15 days, aims to restrict "travel and contacts" at "strictly necessary".
All outings will therefore be prohibited except for "necessary journeys", either to go shopping, to get medical treatment, to go to work, to exercise, to pick up their children in alternate custody or even to help vulnerable people. The President of the Republic clarified during his speech that "any violation of these rules will be penalized". It is therefore impossible for parents to go with their children to the parks to slide, play in the sandboxes or play football outdoors.
