France's famous Louvre museum closed on Sunday as its staff decided to stage a walkout following a special meeting on the coronavirus outbreak in the country, media reported, APA reports quoting Sputnik.
The fears were caused as museums were not covered by the ban on indoor gatherings of more than 5,000 people, which was introduced by the government on Saturday in a bid to contain the further spread of the deadly coronavirus disease in the country.
According to the national Le Parisien newspaper, the museum's doors have been closed since Sunday morning due to concerns among its personnel about the growing number of people infected with the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in France. As the administration's response to their fears did not satisfy the worker, 298 out of 300 decided to exercise their right to withdrawal and did not work that day.
