if the French border were closed?

I hope it doesn't happen, but if the EU does close to North American travelers as is being discussed, and if the French side of St. Martin isn't exempted from that, we will have to stay on the Dutch side until the travel ban ends. We will still go, as we stay on the Dutch side, and while we enjoy visiting French side beaches and restaurants, we'll still want to support Dutch side businesses. Just wondering how many others would do the same.
