Prime Minister Jean Castex announced yesterday that confinement will apply throughout the national territory, including Martinique. The other overseas territories are not concerned.

Containment will be applied everywhere in France, Jean Castex said yesterday. Martinique is the only overseas territory concerned.

“As of last night midnight, confinement was decreed throughout France, and until December 1 at a minimum. The only exception: for the overseas departments and territories, where the virus circulates less quickly, this device will only be applied in Martinique. However, tests will be required on departure or arrival from these territories, in order to avoid any risk of the virus spreading, ”said Jean Castex.
