Vigilance is always appropriate, in particular since the discovery, last week, several outbreaks, especially in Rome, the capital of the country. “We’ve got some lack of attention, as the young nightlife scene, and so on, but in Italy, most people continue to wear the mask and apply the distancing physical,” said Massio Andreoni, head of the department of infectious diseases at the hospital Tor Vergata in Rome. The virus will continue to circulate and we’ll have the sudden reappearance of a few outbreaks. If there is a second wave, this will be our fault. This will mean that we will not have been able to apply what we have learned.”
Coronavirus in the United Kingdom
The last balance sheet reported in the United Kingdom was state, Tuesday, of 155 deaths of more in 24 hours (compared to 25 the previous day). In total, the country has 43 730 people since the beginning of the epidemic to more than 312 654 positive cases. According to the office for national statistics (ONS), the number of deaths attributed to the new coronavirus is nevertheless higher than that announced by the ministry of Health, and the overall balance would be in reality more than 50 000 victims of the Covid-19, taking into account the actual number of deceased persons in retirement homes. In addition, the health professionals in the country have asked the class british policy to prepare the United Kingdom in the “true risk” of a second wave, last Wednesday, in a letter published in the British Medical Journal.
The Uk is also continuing with its déconfinement progressive, including the partial reopening of the schools since the beginning of the month. The return is done by age groups for primary schools with pupils aged 4 to 6 years, and from 10 to 11 years.

After the discovery of many cases in the largest slaughterhouse in the country, in North-Rhine Westphalia, the two townships had been placed in confinement until the 30th of June.

Bars or movie theaters will remain closed, residents asked to stay in their homes and gatherings of more than two people in the public space are prohibited.
The dissemination of a video, which seems to be recorded in the month of April in the premises of the slaughterhouse Tommies to Gütershloh in North Rhine-Westphalia has created the scandal in recent days. It is this slaughter that was born the largest home épidéeconomic facing the country, with more than 1500 employees have been tested positive to the virus. “I find it outrageous that Tönnies has reacted so late, and now everyone in the district suffers the consequences, one has even the right to go on holiday,” said a resident in remarks picked up by FranceInfo. The reconfinement part of two districts of the region North Rhine-Wespthalie had the effect of a bomb on a european continent that fears the arrival of a second wave. The measure was scheduled for a week until June 30. “We are dealing with the most important site of infection,” announced on June 21, Armin Laschet. The latter said on Monday 29 June that few people outside of the slaughterhouse were contaminated by the Covid-19.
Coronavirus in Portugal

Since midnight, the tourists but also expatriates Portuguese can again win the Portugal by the road, a very important data for the Portuguese economy, which relies heavily on summer tourism to limit the impact of the epidemic.
This new, highly anticipated, however, was troubled by the announcements of the last days. Lisbon remains in part in quarantine this week. The capital region represents 80% of outbreaks of contagious diseases discovered in Portugal, while 300 to 400 new cases daily are detected in a country which had until now only about 40 000 cases of coronavirus. The Prime minister Antonio Costa has warned and announced “voting is a civic duty containment at home” for the neighborhoods, city limits, concerned. It is not of Lisbon but of a few districts of municipalities close”, has he insisted, no doubt sensitive to the possible impact of this announcement on tourism.
In these neighborhoods, residents are invited to stay with them, and can not get out to go to work, do their shopping for food or health as well as for medical appointments. Any gathering of over 10 persons is prohibited. Since 1 July, Portugal is split into three areas. In the one where the rules are less strict, wearing a mask is still required in the transport and places closed, but the gatherings are allowed for up to 20 people. In the second area, which relates to Lisbon and its environs, we are talking about a state of “contingency”. The collections are limited to 10 people and the shops close as early as 20h. Finally, in the third area, the containment is in effect, and the business limited to a maximum of 5 people.
The final 8 of the champions League football, scheduled for the beginning of August in Lisbon, can it be threatened ? While Portugal was pleased to have been chosen by the UEFA in view of its good results in the management of the outbreak of coronavirus, the surge of new cases in the Portuguese capital concerned. The country heard yet wet on her good numbers, and its status as a safe destination to attract the european tourists. The government has recently introduced a mobile application “Info Praia” on the terms of opening of the beaches this summer. We have included on this application, information about the rate of occupation of beaches as well as a color code for whether the beach is open in “dynamic” mode (walk permitted only) or if it is possible to cover it with his towel. The dating of the beaches could be monitored and reduced by half compared to usual, but their access could remain free.

Receptions can take place over the festive halls, but by limiting the number of guests to 50 people. The wearing of masks in the public space is advisable but not mandatory.

African country that makes the most of screening tests, South Africa has passed the milestone of 100 000 reported cases and nearly 2000 deaths. A test vaccine will be conducted on 2000 people. Developed by the university of Oxford and is considered as promising, it is already the subject of clinical trials in the United Kingdom and Brazil. The”objective, for the moment, is to ensure that the vaccine is not dangerous for patients, and to measure the response of the immune system”, explains to France 24 Lee Fairlie, a paediatrician at Wits university, who supervises one of the sites of the clinical trial. The challenge is to verify the absence of side effects. “This is what’s called a phase 2, during which one seeks to determine what is the dose of a vaccine produces the best immune response,” says his side Pierre Saliou, chairman of the Group of intervention in public health and epidemiology (GISPE).
