A few hours before deconfinement, calls for vigilance and warnings against a possible "relaxation" have multiplied this weekend. Until the last hours, Sunday evening, where Emmanuel Macron himself split a message on Twitter to remind the French that the fight against the Covid-19 was not won.
“Thanks to you, the virus has receded. But it is still there, "warned the head of state on the social network, capturing a slogan" Save lives, stay cautious "of the same type as the previous" Save lives, stay at home ".

This Sunday, the latest count from the Directorate General of Health reported 70 new deaths in the last 24 hours in France, the lowest daily balance since the start of confinement on March 17.
Four potential “clusters”
The total toll since the start of the epidemic on March 1 now amounts to at least 26,380 deaths, while the pressure on hospital emergency services is still reducing, with 36 patients less, for a total of 2 776 serious cases in intensive care.
However, in several "green" areas, the formation of outbreaks worries the authorities. Four potential "clusters" were unearthed over the weekend: in the Dordogne, after a funeral, in a college in Vienne, in an agrifood company in Vendée as well as a home for young workers in Hauts-de- Seine, at Clamart.
