France is experiencing its worst moment of the pandemic, now with a new record of positives reported in the last 24 hours, 464,769 infections, that is, almost 14 ,,000 of total patients.

The scandalous figure comes a day after the 80, positive, however, the authorities justified the difference due to the adjustment of cases not reported on the weekend.

In addition, the French government insists that the evolution of the pandemic reaches its peak and is committed to a drop in the next few weeks.

On the last 24 hours were recorded 373 victims, up to a total of 127,638 since the start of the pandemic.

In this context, the Prime Minister of France, Jean Castex, announced two new measures with which the Government will provide aid to companies affected by the pandemic.

The first measure will help small businesses with less than 250 employees who lost more than 30 percent of your billing volume in December 2021 and January of 2022, and will cover the 23 percent of your social contributions.

The second measure involves companies that lost more than 65 percent of their turnover and that they have asked their employees to work part-time. These companies will be exempt from the charges normally paid by employers for permanent staff, and will also receive an aid equivalent to 20 percent of your payments for social contributions.
