Europe’s top coronavirus hot spots are preparing to lift lockdown measures after seeing the biggest dip in daily new confirmed cases and deaths in weeks.
Italy, Spain, and France have all recorded their lowest daily spike in fatalities to date.
On Monday, Italy recorded just 174 coronavirus-related deaths within a 24-hour period – the lowest daily increase in two months, Sky News reported. Spain’s 164 new death count was the lowest daily increase since mid-March. In France, 135 deaths were recorded overnight.
Italy
Italy, the first country in the world to implement a nationwide lockdown on March 10, is allowing parks and public gardens to reopen starting Monday.
For the first time in nearly two months, Italians are permitted to visit relatives within the same region. Restaurants can offer takeaway, and athletes can resume training for individual sports.
Italy remains the hardest hit in Europe after the novel virus broke out of China, where it first originated in the city of Wuhan in the Hubei province in late November.
Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte has stressed that people must maintain social distancing and avoid large gatherings in order for the country to advance to the next phase on May 18.
At that point, shops, museums, and libraries can welcome guests. By June 1, bars, restaurant dining areas, cafes, and beauty salons can once again reopen. Schools, however, will remain closed until September, he said.
Italy recorded some 1,400 new cases on Sunday – compared to its record daily spike on March 21, when about 6,600 new infections were identified within a 24-period.
As of Monday, Italy was the third most-infected country in the world, recording at least 210,717 confirmed coronavirus cases, falling behind only the United States and Spain.

Yet there are now reports about some CDC computer model claiming that the virus - unlike anywhere in Europe - will rebound in the US with a vengeance, claiming 3,000 lives a day in June and generating 100,000 - 200,000 new cases a day. What the hell is going on?
Maybe up to 50,000 cases per day but I don’t see more than that especially since we went through the 1st wave and the most vulnerable people got infected first.
There is so much money involved in the next stimulus if it is needed that it’s hard to trust anybody. Trump said if the economy rebounds there will be no need for another stimulus. Democrats want a monumental one

If you want no transmission you use Taiwan’s model (temperature checks everywhere and mandatory masks in public). Anything that deviates from that leads to transmission, and the more a country deviates, the more transmission.
We’ll likely deviate the most, due to the FluBro aversion to wearing masks, and so we’ll get the worst.
That’s what happens when the US federal government advertises a $39,000 bounty per Coronavirus victim. We should have the name of whoever thought that was a bright idea.
