French hospitals saturated by November 11 without new measures, French PM told lawmakers

PARIS (Reuters) - French hospitals' intensive care units will be saturated with COVID-19 patients by November 11 if nothing is done to stop the epidemic in France, the French prime minister told lawmakers in a meeting behind closed doors, according to participants.

"He told us that on November 11, our hospitals will be at a saturation level equivalent to that of the first wave, so a level of extreme saturation," lawmaker André Chassaigne told reporters after the meeting.
