Any idea if France has a plan to include deaths from "all settings" to include homes and other places in the community?

Well I didn't read about plans to include other than deaths in nursing homes and hospitals for now.

The consistent lowering of deaths in France is "positive" news and very "good" to hear that it has fallen below 100 now.

In the UK we are going down by an average of 100 deaths a week and now it is in the 400s a day from a peak of in the 800s a day 1 month ago. The number of deaths is still very high and the Prime Minister will probably keep things pretty much as they are for another 3 weeks with some easing like allowing selected outdoor businesses to open and maybe relaxing rules on exercise. Changes in schools will almost certainly have to wait till start of June.

I just read about the plan by your Prime Minister to ease the lockdown and think it strikes a good balance between the economy and the people's health:

https://www.france24.com/en/20200507-live-france-unveils-final-plan-on-easing-covid-19-lockdown

"As part of the phased exit from lockdown, primary schools and most businesses — though not cafes and restaurants — will be allowed to reopen as of May 11, both in red and green zones. In the latter zones, Philippe said secondary schools, cafes and restaurants may open from early June if the infection rate remains low.

An exception will be made for the overseas territory of Mayotte, where “infections are rising fast”, Philippe said, warning that the lockdown would be prolonged there
."

What are your thoughts on the plan that has been announced by your government?

The numbers are much higher in winter when immune system is weaker.

Well I pretty much agree with the lockdown exit plan,however I don't believe the re-opening of schools was necessary especially that the academic year is ending soon. Quite hard to teach children about social distancing measures and the wear of masks all the day at school etc. As for myself,I won't send my kids back to school.

I believe we are putting them at risks but also there's a risk of them spreading the virus. The government has warned that it will re-impose lockdown measures if infection rates are bad or skyrocket.

It will be pretty much impossible to keep social distancing with children that young.

I think that the French government is taking a calculated risk in reopening of primary schools.

We known from empirical evidence that children that young without any pre-existing health conditions have a very low risk of death from the novel coronavirus. Since their parents are also likely to be younger than 50 and so even if they were to pass on the infection to their healthy parents, provided the parents are healthy, then no-one in the household would be at severe risk of death.
As long as the children and their parents stay away from the grandparents and practice social distancing from people outside their household, then the risk of many people dying will be low from any outbreak due to opening up primary schools again.

I completely understand why you will not be sending your children back to school after what has happened in France and been seen in other European countries like UK, Spain and Italy. Did the French government give parents the option on whether they send their children back or is this not clear yet?

It's on voluntary basis for now. According to recent polls 60% of parents will not send their kids back to school. Let's see how things go.
