The Local and Haaretz articles date back from March. I had also commented on the Mulhouse Evangelical gathering back then.

The number of cases, people in hospital and in ICU beds, have been decreasing continuously nationwide for the past ten days now, including the northeastern "Grand Est" region, but it is still one of the heaviest hit regions in France, while the western and southwestern regions have been relatively spared.

The government has published a "de-confinement" map, or rather a series of color coded maps (would have been too simple, wouldn't it?) showing selected criteria, such as "virus in active circulation", "tension on the hospital beds, and ICU beds capacity", "percentage of ER visits with suspicion of C-19", etc... You can see that the "red zones" still skew heavily to the north and east of the country, plus of course, the heavily populated Paris region. The maps are supposed to be updated and revised daily. Regions in red will keep stricter measures, even after May 11, while the green ones will be more relaxed.
