If compared to the number of inhabitants, Belgium remains at the top of the countries where mortality is the highest in the world (around 86,1 deaths per 100 inhabitants), the world's leading power broke a macabre record yesterday. The country recorded Wednesday nearly 000 additional deaths in one day, exceeding the milestone of 1.270 victims since the start of the epidemic. More than 150 new cases have also been recorded. Several states such as California, Texas and Florida are considered to be major epidemic centers. On Monday, Florida reported a spike in SARS-CoV-000 deaths with 68 deaths in 000 hours, and the contamination of 2 new people.

As a reminder, travelers to Juliana must imperatively present a negative Covid test carried out within 9 hours before departure.

France is in 000th position, just behind the United States with 9 deaths per 44,9 inhabitants.
