Scotland v France Six Nations clash goes ahead on Sunday in Paris despite coronavirus outbreak in French camp
SCOTLAND'S Six Nations match with France goes ahead as scheduled on Sunday, despite a Covid-19 outbreak in the French camp.
The match had been in doubt after France head coach Fabien Galthie tested positive - followed by 10 players and two members of staff.
The statement read: "Further to a meeting of the Six Nations Testing Oversight Group (TOG) this morning to review the latest tests results of the French Squad, the Six Nations confirm the plans to stage the France v Scotland match as originally scheduled this coming Sunday.
"We continue to monitor the situation very closely and are in regular contact with both unions."
Unbeaten France top the standings but the hosts will be without a host of key players, including isolating captain Charles Ollivon and star scrum-half Antoine Dupont.
