Global News published this video item, entitled “Coronavirus: Quebec Premier François Legault gives update on COVID-19 response | LIVE” – below is their description.
Quebec Premier François Legault is providing an update on the province’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic Thursday afternoon.
Health authorities in Quebec have reported fewer than 2,000 new cases of COVID-19 for four consecutive days — almost two weeks since the imposition of a provincewide curfew between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m.
Legault has suggested the drop in cases may be the result of the curfew, which he said he imposed to reduce COVID-19 transmission, especially to people older than 60. The measure will be in effect, he said, until at least Feb. 8.
On Wednesday, the Health Department reported 1,502 new cases of COVID-19 and an average of 1,792 cases over the previous seven days, down from an average of 2,385 the week before.
