Analysis of the Epidemiological Situation

In terms of affected areas, the situation has remained stable over the past three weeks in Martinique, where the outbreak remains most active, and in Saint Martin; a decline has been observed in Saint Barthélemy. These trends need to be confirmed in the coming weeks. In Guadeloupe, a slowdown has been observed, but confirmation over the coming weeks is also required. In French Guiana, the spread of the virus remains moderate but is expanding from the outbreak identified in the municipality of Kourou and is now affecting the island of Cayenne. Interpreting the most recent data is difficult due to the Carnival period, which led to the closure of many medical practices.
