Weekend lockdown in Paris region may not be enough, says hospital executive

Wed, 17th Mar 2021 07:59

PARIS, March 17 (Reuters) - Enforcing a weekend lockdown in
the greater Paris region may not be enough to rein in the
coronavirus there, an executive at the AP-HP Paris hospitals
organisation, Remi Salomon, said on Wednesday.

Salomon, who heads the group's medical committee, also told
BFM TV the currently suspended AstraZeneca COVID-19
vaccine was as efficient as the Pfizer one.
