Australia will ease social distancing restrictions in a three-step process, Prime Minister Scott Morrison said on Friday, as Canberra aims to remove most curbs by July and get nearly 1 million people back to work amid a decline in coronavirus cases.

“You can stay under the doona forever. You’ll never face any danger,” Morrison told reporters in Canberra, using an Australian word for quilt. “But we’ve got to get out from under the doona at some time.” “Step 1 is tentative, baby steps into normalisation,” Australia’s Chief Medical Officer Brendan Murphy told the briefing.

When implemented, stage three will permit gatherings of up to 100 people, allow employees to return to their offices and see the re-opening of nightclubs. In its quarterly statement, the Reserve Bank of Australia forecast the A$2 trillion economy would shrink by 10% in the first half of the year, marking the first recession in three decades.
