⁍ The Czech Republic has recorded the sharpest rises in infections on the continent in recent weeks.
⁍ The government on Wednesday ordered most shops and services to close.
⁍ The total number of coronavirus-related deaths doubled to more than 2,000 in the last two weeks.
– The prime minister of the Czech Republic says the country will likely have to tighten its anti-coronavirus measures again if current measures don’t work to stop an outbreak of the virus that has killed more than 2,000 people in Europe, Reuters reports. “The next week will be the key one, and unless a miracle happens, we won’t have any other choice than to tighten our measures further,” Andrej Babis said in a video message on his Facebook page Sunday. “I don’t know what will happen with the virus. I don’t know.” The country has ordered most shops and services to close and limited movement to essential trips, according to the AP.
