A new very strict health protocol

A new health protocol is under study.Among the tracks mentioned, the potential introduction of a gauge proportional to the surface of shops, to limit the number of customers in stores.Touching objects could also be prohibited.For Anthony Pinon, no doubt, traders will be quite capable of putting it in place in just a week if it was necessary.
