MADRID - New coronavirus infections and deaths declined in Germany, France and Spain as all of Europe watches their efforts to gradually ease the lockdowns that sought to tame the pandemic.
"This 51 per cent of the Spanish population will get back a greater part of their lives" after the whole country fought the outbreak, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said Saturday. Spain has the most number of confirmed cases in Europe. Outside the euro region, Russia's new cases topped 10,000 for a seventh straight day, leapfrogging on Friday the size of the outbreak in France and nearing levels recorded in the UK, Italy, and Spain, the region's hardest-hit countries.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who was at risk of dying from Covid-19 last month, is under pressure to ease the country's lockdown even after a week in which the death toll exceeded 600 on several days. Johnson will lay out a road map out of the lockdown on Sunday, though he is expected to largely keep restrictions in place until June.
