Under the confinement, only journeys to buy food and medicine and to go to work are allowed. All non-essential businesses have been closed and open-air markets are shut down. People would be allowed to go out for a walk with their children or to exercise once a day for no more than one hour, and within one kilometer of their home. Sanctions against those who break the rules would be tougher.
Patrick Pelloux, president of the Association of hospital emergency doctors, echoed the urgent necessity to stay confined and not to cede to temptation of good weather.
"We are probably winning the battle, but the French must understand that it we are winning over the epidemic it's because they remained confined," Pelloux told France info radio.
"Better days will come, we just need more little patience... It's difficult, but we absolutely have to stay confined," he said.
The scientific council, which advises the government on the epidemic crisis, recommended to prolong containment at least until April 28, noting that three weeks were needed to obtain an initial estimate of the impact.
