against the pandemic was published in April 2019, which helped Ankara cope with the coronavirus pandemic.

In a further effort to control the contagion, weekend lockdowns were imposed in April and May, sometimes extended to four days."Unlike in Madrid or Lombardy or New York City, Turkey’s healthcare system was never overwhelmed by Covid-19 patients. And the world’s steepest coronavirus infection curve is now declining precipitously," he said.
