Everything indicates that the new coronavirus is starting to enter a stabilization line. The President of France, Macron, in an important address to the nation, President f presented a detailed plan, very progressive and still full of unknowns, for the return to normality in France.
The President's announcement was made on Monday night. In the speech Macron says that the extension of the confinement will extend until May 11, to combat the spread of the coronavirus.
This is already the president's third solemn address to the nation since the pandemic hit France in March. Macron also clarified that from that date, schools will start to open and the economy will start to function if the results are positive.
This speech by the president was more pedagogical than epic in tone, a detailed guide to the next steps, an attempt to explain how the progressive exit from the closure, which has left at least 15,000 people dead in this country and is leading to the biggest recession since 1945, will be.

Macron began speaking at 20:02 local time, with enough margin to allow the French to go out onto the balconies to applaud health personnel and those who are at the “front” of this “war”, as he called it on March 16, when he decreed the confinement.
He clarified: “We will eventually win, but for months we will have to continue living with the virus,” Macron said. “Our nation is solidary, with a common objective”.
