RFI:- Authorities in the French Caribbean island of Martinique have prolonged a night-time curfew for a further two weeks to combat a surge in Covid-19 infections. Warning the fifth virus wave was “increasingly worrying”, Martinique’s prefect said the 8pm-5am curfew would be re-enforced from Wednesday. The original curfew had been introduced because of violence that hit the island during at night. The extension, which is subject to a review clause, is to rein in the spiralling number of cases. 'All travel (on the island) must be justified by a compelling reason of family, health or professional nature,” prefect Stanislas Cazelle
