Barrier gestures
Covid-19: Physical distancing raised to 2 meters
Publié le 28 janvier 2021 - Directorate for Legal and Administrative Information (Prime Minister)
To limit the spread of more contagious variants of the coronavirus, the physical distance between two people is increased from 1 meter to 2 meters without wearing a mask. A decree issued in Official Journal 28 January 2021 amends social distancing following an opinion from the High Council for Public Health (HCSP).
Physical distancing now requires people to stay at least two meters away from their neighbor without wearing a mask. Masks must be worn systematically by all when physical distancing cannot be guaranteed. It is appropriate to meet mask requirements and to observe the barrier measures in all places and under all circumstances:
- wash your hands regularly with soap and water (access to which must be facilitated by disposing of disposable towels) or with a hydro-alcoholic friction;
- systematically cover the nose and mouth by coughing or sneezing into the elbow;
- blow your nose in a disposable tissue to be disposed of immediately in a rubbish bin;
- avoid touching the face, especially the nose, mouth, and eyes.
In the case of collective catering, the same table can only group people who come together or who have booked together, to a limit now set at 4 people instead of 6. A minimum distance of 2 meters shall be guaranteed between each seated person, unless a fixed or removable wall ensures physical separation.
FYI
This action was taken as a result of supplement to the CHSP opinion of 21 January 2021 on the control of the spread of new virus variants.
