Europe Begins Today's Relief of Blocking Measures

Today, many countries begin further easing restrictions because of the measures taken against the coronary.

Most of the businesses in Italy, including bars and wigs, will be free to reopen after more than two months of domestic deadlock measures, the BBC reports today.

Spain is determined to ease its restrictions outside Madrid and Barcelona, with groups of up to 10 people free to meet.

The measures follow a steady decline in the number of registered daily deaths.

Yesterday, Italy recorded the lowest daily deaths since it began closing in March.

It is said that 145 people had died with the virus in the previous 24 hours. This marked a significant decline in its highest daily death rate, which was more than 900 on 27 March.

In Spain, the daily death toll fell below 100 for the first time after establishing its closure restrictions.

But officials are warning that co-operation for the virus could lead to a second wave of infections.
