They have their temperatures taken upon arrival, leave their shoes outside and must enter in full ballet attire - plus face mask - as the dressing rooms are off limits.

Many French cases, some of which were exported as far away as South America, originated from a week-long church gathering in the city in February, attended by some 2,000 people.
