As the vaccination campaign in France advances, the fight against the coronavirus epidemic continues. As of Wednesday June 16, 2021, there are 93 départements with an incidence rate of less than 50 cases per 100,000 inhabitants. Here are the areas where the virus circulates least in France.

In France, after a third wave that led to a new hybrid containment, the fight against thecoronavirus epidemic continues. For the first time, the French can look forward to a lasting end to the health crisis, thanks in particular to the progress of the vaccination campaign, which is opening up to an ever wider public. The opening of the slots to all adults has been brought forward to May 31, 2021. Minors, meanwhile, will see vaccination slots open for the first time from June 15, 2021.

The country is thus gearing up to meet the challenge of the summer of 2021, which presents a major challenge in terms of both health and the economy, with the revival of tourism. In the meantime, indicators are being closely monitored to track theevolution of the coronavirus epidemic in France.
