High absenteeism and a rash of cases around Boston in recent weeks has also forced the closing of several public and private schools. “Traditionally we don?...

That follows the earlier lead of financial dailies Les Echos and La Tribune to sit out national holidays - a sous-pinching habit to which Catholic daily La Croix and its communist opposite L'Humanité have also since subscribed.
