Prime Minister Boris Johnson said the British government would recruit 25,000 additional tracers in early June to handle 10,000 new cases each day. Johnson said the number of tests performed in a day will reach 200,000.

Last week, the UK began to encourage people to return to work if their jobs cannot be done remotely, such as manufacturing or construction.

In Italy

Italy recorded 652 more cases and 130 deaths, bringing the total to 228,658 and 32,616, respectively. The rate of spread is tending to decrease.

The Italian government is expected to allow freedom of travel from June 3, marking a major easing step after the South European nation issued a blockade in early March. When the restraining order relaxed, Italy will reopen the entire airport, border with neighboring countries and remove mandatory isolation requirements for people on entry.

In France

France reported 182,219 infections and 28,289 deaths, up 393 and 74 respectively, lower than yesterday. The number of new infections has not increased significantly compared to the last week before the French blockade on May 11, but health officials continue to recommend that people wear masks when visiting homes and disinfecting surfaces like a door handle.

Germany recorded 27 more deaths from nCoV, bringing the number of deaths due to pandemic in this country to 8,174 out of 177,212 cases.

16 German states gradually removed restrictions on the levels varying from April 20. Germany eased border controls with some of its neighbors on May 16 and aims to restore freedom of movement in Europe from mid-June.

The rate of increase in infections and deaths in Europe has decreased significantly compared to the peak in March, allowing countries to relax their social blockade. However, many European leaders still warn of the risk of Covid-19 recurrence if they completely remove measures of community isolation quickly.
