French Health Minister Olivier Veran stated on Tuesday the government would not and must not ease the restrictions imposed to curb the further spread of coronavirus now, APA reports citing Teletrader.

The minister also confirmed France had so far detected around ten cases of the new variant of the virus originating from the United Kingdom.

Veran's comments come after the government's chief advisor on the pandemic, Dr. Arnaud Fontanet, noted the spread of COVID-19 in the country was still too high to lift the current restrictions.
