France
Starting tomorrow on October 30th, France will enter another nationwide lockdown, as announced by President Emmanuel Macron.
France has seen an out of control flood of cases over the past few weeks, reporting as high as 50,000 new cases per day, provoking further restrictions and regulations to be put into place.
The new lockdown will differ slightly from the what the nation saw in the spring, as factories and schools are expected to remain open. However, residents are asked to remain inside their homes, with the exception of getting essential supplies or for daily outdoor exercise, limited to 1-hour.
Most non-essential business will also close, including restaurants and bars. All businesses are being asked to keep their employees working from home if possible, and when not possible, workers will have to fill out forms when heading to work to show proof of essential movement.
