Could we actually be in a better situation come the summer if the hospitalisation rates are down and vaccinations get higher? I've had a COVID Xmas and know quite a few others who have - but I've not heard about anyone struggling with this variant.
Several members of my family had the virus over Christmas in the UK, despite being vaccinated, without needing hospital care, but France currently has 3,333 Covid patients in a serious/critical condition. With 179,807 new cases yesterday, that's what is influencing the minds of the ministers who frame the regulations here in France.
