What will the world of tomorrow look like? That's the trillion-dollar question. And for good reason, almost a year after the arrival of Covid-19 on the territory, the government of Emmanuel Macron, overwhelmed by the current health crisis, cannot say if the French will one day be able to regain their "life of 'before". After being forced into two confinements and several versions of the curfew, citizens hope more than ever to see their restaurants reopen, as well as bars, cinemas and above all … no longer wearing masks all day long. However, for Dominique Le Guludec, president of the college of the High Authority of health, invited in the chair of Daily Monday, January 25, 2021, we will have to get used to these barrier gestures for several more months, even several years …
"You don't get used to having 300 or 400 deaths every day at all"

Here again, the president of the High Authority for Health kicks in touch: "We're going to get there but it depends what you call getting there. Are we going to remove this virus and its cousins? ", she suggests. "Yes", answers the presenter of TMC. Dominique Le Guludec then answers with honesty: "I don't know … I don't know". Faced with the cold thrown on the set, the researcher tries a touch of optimism: "We will manage to avoid this social restriction …" A statement that left the entire plateau more than skeptical …
