Virus Outbreak France

A woman walks by the closed English and American literature Shakespeare bookstore in Paris, Tuesday, Nov.3, 2020. French supermarkets are banned from selling flowers and books but they can still sell baby care products, according to a decree published Tuesday laying out new rules for what are considered "essential" items during a monthlong lockdown effort to slow virus infections and save lives. Supermarkets are sealing off aisles or taking products off shelves based on the new rules, which came after small businesses like florists and bookstores complained that they were being unfairly punished because they were forced to close down.
