As PM Johnson was discharged from the hospital this weekend after having spent time in intensive care, Britain looked set to face its most challenging week yet in its battle against the coronavirus.
With indications that in Italy and Spain the situation may be taking a tentative turn for the better, there are concerns in Britain that it may become the European nation with the most coronavirus deaths.
There is also concern in Britain, as in other countries, that the official death toll could in reality be much higher than what is being recorded. The United Kingdom’s official figures only include those who tested positive and were admitted to hospital. Those who died in nursing homes, for example, are not included in the figures.
As Britons prepare to return to work following the Easter long weekend, it looks all but certain that lawmakers will extend the lockdown that was due to be reviewed on Monday.
