Lockdown eyed to deter tourists in French city

Nice, France, should implement a weekend lockdown to deter outsiders from visiting as the weather improves, said Mayor Christian Estrosi, adding that an influx of Christmas visitors drove up the number of coronavirus cases. “We will be happy to receive lots of tourists this summer, once we win this battle, but it is better to have a period while we say ‘do not come here, this is not the moment,’ ” Estrosi said.
