Following a period of high infection rates, Paris will be raising it's coronavirus alert level to maximum and shut down all bars. The new restrictions will last for two weeks. Other restrictions include restaurants requiring new sanitary arrangements and university halls must be no more than half full. This comes after the city of Marseille was forced to close all bars, restaurants, and gyms for two weeks. France has been struggling with an increasing infection rate that started in August. The French government has stated that it does not want to order nationwide lockdowns but will enforce measures in cities where the virus is concentrated.
