I agree with Alsacienne. The lockdown will be finished by May 11th but it will take an unknown period of time to reinstate a certain level of normality. For example, my employer has informed us that there is no way we are going back to the office before late May, and even then we might first go only for some meetings a few hours per week, while the rest of the time we will keep on teleworking from our homes.

I had a conversation with a friend who wants to book his summer holidays in Provence, and I suggested waiting at least until we know how the déconfinement is going to work, and whether it seems like it will last, as the possibility of a second wave of infections is always there. I am seeing my summer more as day trips to Deauville with a picnic basket than as weeks in the Basque Country or in the Mediterranean (and I'm always talking about domestic travelling, when international travel will resume is another story).
