Australia warns Covid border closures could last into late 2021-

I respect this news, I want my fellow Australians to be safe, but I’m also so, so heartbroken that I probably won’t see a single family member for two years straight.

Please wear masks. Please socially distance. Please at least try to reduce the spread of COVID. Please. pic.twitter.com/Oz12g6sLZk

France, Italy, Poland, Europe, UK, Russia, from The Guardian's Coronavirus Live Feed:

France sees over 20,000 cases in a single day

The number of coronavirus infections in France jumped over 20,000 in one day for the first time since the start of the epidemic, health ministry data showed.

The ministry reported 20,330 new infections, taking the total to 691,977 since the start of the year. In the past two days the ministry had reported more than 18,000 daily new confirmed Covid-19 cases.

The number of deaths from the virus increased by 109 to 32,630, the highest in a week but below highs of around 150 seen earlier this month.

However, the death toll figures can be skewed as the ministry often reports several days of senior citizen residence data in one batch

Schools, child-care centres and places of worship will remain open. Before-school and after-school programs will also be exempt from the new restrictions.
