Holy shit France's numbers look bad today. Currently 1355 deaths, from 'just' 509 yesterday.
I can't find confirmation just yet, but I think that the figure might be so much higher than yesterday because they've just added in the nursing home (EHPAD) death figures too (all daily totals in France until now have only included hospital deaths). Liberation reports that they now have an (unconsolidated) figure of 884 deaths from nursing homes, so if it's due to this number being added, it puts the 'hospital only' deaths at slightly less than yesterday's 509.
I'm not completely sure on this though.Edit:
The numbers match up here:471 hospital deaths + 884 EHPAD deaths = 1355
