PARIS (FRANCE) – In order to stem the flow of visitors amid a sharp spurt in the number of coronavirus cases, the mayor of the French city of Nice has sought a weekend lockdown in the area.
“We need a strong measures that go beyond the nationwide 6 p.m. curfew, either a tighter curfew, or a partial and time-specific lockdown. A weekend lockdown would make sense …that would stop the inflow of visitors,” Mayor Christian Estrosi said on franceinfo radio.
