A lifting of the containment region by region, decided according to the outbreaks of Covid-19 or age classes. This is the option on which the government seems to be counting after the declarations of Prime Minister Édouard Philippe, Wednesday April 1, believing "probable" that the exit from containment will not be done "in one go, everywhere and for everyone" .

Before a fact-finding mission to the National Assembly, the Prime Minister said he hoped to be able to present an early strategy "in the days, weeks to come".

"We asked several teams to work on this question by studying the opportunity, the feasibility of a 'deconfinement' which would be regionalized, which would be subject to a test policy, depending, who knows, on age groups ", said Édouard Philippe.

The confinement must officially last until April 15.
