  1. In my opinion, I think that Christmas is a very important period for a large part of the French, however I wonder if it is so good to take the risk of accentuating the development of COVID.
    I think that restrictions are a good solution to fight COVID, however they are not always respected, that is why I think it is important that all French people become aware of the danger of this virus and that it is therefore important to respect the restrictions in order to be able to enjoy the most of Christmas period.
    Christmas is a very important time for me, but it is much more important today to stop the development of this virus.

    Due to the Covid, the Christmas season was totally different this year. As for many people, Christmas is a very important family time for me, but the safeness of my family is ever more important. I think the restrictions are essentials to protect everyone from this virus, but unfortunately, lots of people do not respects them and take the advantage of this lightering to see each other and to involuntarily propagate the disease. Due to this comportment, the number of cases still increase, in consequences the best solution to decrease the number of affected people by the Covid 19 and to promote the health of the population, a lockdown would be necessary, as in surrounding countries as England.

  3. It is difficult to answer this question... On the one hand, Christmas is a time to share with family, friends and loved ones, if the state decides to set up a lockdown, many people, especially the elderly or those at risk, will find themselves alone. But this will avoid any risk of contamination. On the other hand, if restrictions are put in place to limit the number of people per household and travel, this will limit the risks while keeping the Christmas spirit to a minimum. This is why before Christmas I thought that the best thing to do is to avoid confinement but to be careful, to avoid kissing and not to get too close to each other. However, I have been of the opinion that the state has decided to put restrictions in place but this has only increased the rate of cases so I think that confinement is now urgent.

  4. From my point of view, Christmas is very important, there is a beautiful atmosphere: lights and decorations everywhere in cities, sometimes there is snow, we decorate christmas tree at home, listen or watch christmas songs and movies. Moreover, it’s the perfect occasion to see your family, talk and exchange a meal and gifts with them, and there is also the legend of Santa-Claus so it’s a magical moment for children. During this time, we forget our problems, and have a very good time with family. But this year it’s complicated because there is a lot of people who suffer from coronavirus and there is a huge risk to spread the virus during this event so we can’t act normally. Therefore, I think that restrictions are necessary and people have to be responsible, wear a mask and keep distances to protect people vulnerable in their family if we want to celebrate Christmas.

  5. In my opinion, everybody need to be with his or her family to celebrate this important period so, I don't think that a lockdown could be a solution.However, this pandemic is about the entire society so we have to stay safe and protect each other and we have to respect social distancy and stayind at home most of the time.

  6. To my mind, I don't think that a lockdown during Christmas season is a good solution, During the whole year people have been restricted and I think that implementing a lockdown during this season is the wrong choice. The main reason for this is that Christmas is synonym with family and so if we forbid people to gather for Christmas the consequences are going to be really bad. To continue, in my opinion the best choice is to let people get together but they have to be careful and respect social distancing in order not to contaminate each other.

    First, I think that restrictions are a better solution than lockdown because Christmas is a season happy to celebrate with our family, it’s very difficult to force to do people lockdown.
    Christmas is Santa Claus too, and for children, it’s a dream. If Christmas is not celebrating, there are more children who don’t have presents and everybody will be sad, it’s sure.

    Secondly, this is not people who decide the returned by Christmas, it’s so complicated for everyone.
    Then, government could lockdown the country but it’s will be a big error for the economy, for the seasons of presents, for the ceremony that every people waiting with impatience, especially for the New Year.

  8. On the one hand, christams is an important season for the french so a lockdown during this holiday is complicated for the population and on the other hand, many people would not respect this lockdown.
    To sum up , restrictions are a good idea for Christmas, but it is necessary to respect them.

  9. I believe that Christmas is a very important time of the year and that it should be spent with family and people that mean a lot to us but it also means gathering, which is not the best idea at the moment. We have all been doing efforts this year to keep the Covid cases as low as possible and ruining all of it just for one day would be a pity. However, it is important to celebrate this holiday and having a little break from this worldwide pandemic would do us some good. This is why, in my opinion, the government shouldn't prohibit us completely from celebrating but they could put some restrictions to make this holiday as safe as possible so that afterwards we won't regret it.

  10. This is a very difficult question because I think there is no better solution.
    Each solution has advantages and disadvantages.
    In fact, on the one hand a lockdown is a very radical solution even more during the Christmas seasons. Indeed if people are stuck at home they can’t share Christmas and moments with their whole family, what makes from my point of view the Christmas beauty. On top of that it could really affect the economy during this crucial period. On the contrary, reuniting the whole family can be dangerous and very risky during this pandemic period. In fact if a person is sick and with the carelessness other members of the family can be affected which would put their life in danger and would spread the virus. And what is the economy compared to the health of loved ones ?
    On the other hand restrictions like a curfew may not be enough to protect the health of the population and prevent the spread of the virus.

  11. In my opinion, Christmas is a really important holiday for everyone because it's a time to share with family, friends and loved ones, but at the same time, we have to take care of ourselves and our family. I think that restrictions are a good solution to fight against COVID 19.
    Many people suffer from coronavirus and there is a huge risk of the virus spreading during this event. Restrictions are necessary, we need to be responsible, wear a mask and keep our distance to protect the vulnerable. Everyone needs to be with their families to celebrate this important moment, but we must maintain security measures to protect ourselves.

  12. I think the best solution for the Christmas season are restrictions.Because it is a period that is celebrated only once a year, it is a period during which you generally spend a good time with your family and keep good memories for the end of the year, but the covid19 is a dangerous virus: so I think that you have to respect some restrictions in order to protect yourself and the members of your family(and other people). It is also a period when the number of cases of the virus can increase considerably, so it is necessary to be careful and to respect all the measures that can be taken to prevent it.

  13. I am maybe a little bit later for this one but i think that the best solutions for Christmas are to just let everyone live his happy Christmas and maybe try to find something later. I mean the governement stopped us from living our lives as we want to live them with the lockdowns and the curfews so for once i think that the best solution is not to find a solution and do nothing else than enjoy !

  14. Even I made this post after Christmas, I want to tell you my opinion about the question : “lockdown or restrictions for Christmas”. Firstly Christmas is one of the famous celebration where families get together to celebrate properly Christmas. But COVID is here and our parents and grand-parents are weak against COVID. I think restriction is the best solution because the lockdown is too hard for these festive moments, and let everyone see their families may worsen the already critical situation of France. Even if there are restrictions and curfews, we need to enjoy Christmas and celebrate it with the people we love.

  16. I think that there are two solutions to celebrate the Christmas period under the current conditions. The first is to stay at home with family to protect our grandparents' lives from coronavirus. While the second is to go to see our grandparents by taking strict measures such as wearing a mask, safety distance and hydro-alcoholic gel. But, that this represents a minimal risk.
    In my opinion, we should opt for the first solution because we have to be careful and not risk the lives of our grandparents even if Christmas is an important time when we see our whole family in a magical atmosphere.

  17. Health is the most important thing, although Christmas is important too. So I think it is necessary for this year, since the virus is spreading more and more, to sacrifice the feast so that next year we can all be reunited in good conditions. Lockdown is the best way to eliminate the virus, unlike simple restrictions that are not sufficient in the current situation.

  18. I think Christmas is a very important holiday for many people around the world. But unfortunately this year, what is important is not to get together and party, it is to stop the Covid 19. So I think that the restrictions are the best solution for this year. We must avoid gathering together. We have to try to stop this virus so that we can get together again at the other parties in the coming years.

  19. christmas is a very important time of the year and
    I think we cannot have Christmas alone without our family so even if covid-19 advises against it, I think that by taking all possible precautions, there is no problem spending Christmas with our family.

    In my opinion, christmas period is a important period in a year, because you sharing a good time with all or a part of your family. Moreover, In my case, I live far form my family, and Christmas day is the moment when we tell each other all the news, it made me feel good. But, this year is particular with the COVID-19 and even if it displeases me, it is most important to perserve the health of my family. Also, the right solution is a lockdown, it is better to take precautions.
