<p>President Emmanuel Macron laid out new rules on Tuesday in France’s virus strategy, after imposing nationwide restrictions last month as virus infections, the number of people in hospital, and deaths surged around Europe.</p>
<p>France’s infection rate per 100,000 people is now less than a third of what it was at the start of November, and the number of people in hospitals and intensive care has been trending downward for a week.</p>

<p lang="fr" dir="ltr">Aujourd’hui, nous avons atteint 50 000 décès dus à l’épidémie. Si la situation s’améliore globalement dans l’hexagone et les outre-mers, dans certaines régions, elle demeure très préoccupante. Il nous faut poursuivre nos efforts.</p>

“The peak of the second wave is over,” Mr Macron announced in a televised address to the nation.</p>
<p>The situation remains tense, however, with hundreds of virus-related deaths per day, so the cautious emergence from the lockdown reflects that.</p>
<p>On December 15, some museums and cinemas will be allowed to open, and the nationwide stay-at-home rules loosened.</p>

<p>France will reintroduce its 9pm curfew, and the strict associated fines.</p>
<p>Mr Macron said that the curfew will be waived for Christmas eve and New Year’s eve.</p>
<p>On January 20, and only if daily infections drop below the 5,000 mark, restaurants and gyms will be allowed to reopen.</p>
<p>Currently everyone in France needs a permission slip to leave their home and no leisure travel is allowed, although schools and some workplaces remain open.</p>
<p>The government ruled in line with doctors who warned not to relax restrictions too fast and repeat the mistakes France made as it emerged from a lockdown in the spring, with no clear policy on masks and limited testing capacity.</p>
<p>“If we let go too quickly, the virus will circulate again too quickly,” Remi Salomon, head of the medical commission at the Paris hospital authority, told broadcaster France-Info on Tuesday.</p>
<p>Wearing legwarmers, cummerbunds or headgear made of surgical masks, owners of shops, restaurants and bars marched through Lyon on Monday to demand permission to reopen.</p>

<p>Some threw red flares and one held a sign reading simply: “No Future.”</p>
<p>France has reported more infections than any country in Europe and 49,232 virus-related deaths, among the highest tolls in the world.</p>
