Corona spiking in France

[Europa1]

PARIS (AP) — Facing resurgent virus infections, France’s government unveiled a 100 billion-euro ($118 billion) recovery plan Thursday aimed at creating jobs, saving struggling businesses and yanking the country out of its worst economic slump since World War II...

...
France is again seeing a growth in infections after summer vacations, reporting more than 7,000 virus cases Thursday, the highest daily rate in Europe. That is also well above the several hundred cases a day reported in May and June, when France was emerging from lockdown and testing less. The number of people in intensive care with the virus is edging up, though is far from the crisis levels of March and April.
Despite the rise, France’s schools reopened their doors this week for in-person classes, and authorities are encouraging people to return to work.
And the government insisted Thursday it’s time to plan for the post-virus future."

Cases are spiking, hospital admissions and deaths have thankfully decreased all across Europe for now.

New York in the US is FAR FAR FAR safer than France.

The positivity rate in NYC has been less then 1% for almost 60+ days. The fresh cases there are NEGLIGIBLE.

I've got tickets but I'm not expecting to attend. I think it will go ahead, with very minimal crowds allowed in. They will probably impose the 5000 person limit the government have set for all sports.

Clicked on this thread thinking it was about people getting their beers get spiked in Paris, and then they wake up later with no kidneys.

Very, very disappointment.

Absolutely agree!!! And let's bring back Connors as well, so that an American can win a slam again, at long last.

Posted this in matches thread.

Comparing NY State organizers to Paris/France is laughable. The United States on the whole is pretty far removed from the rest of the world in a lot of areas. So it's not like the USO going ahead means the FO is untouchable. Their advantage is having it end in just over a month, seemingly before the 2nd wave gets into full swing.
