— The World Health Organization has warned that coronavirus cases are surging alarmingly in Europe, as a"very serious situation" unfolds across the continent.

More than half of European nations have reported an increase of more than 10% in new cases in the past two weeks, Kluge added."Of those, seven countries have seen newly reported cases increase more than two-fold in the same period," he said. Countries across the continent have been easing lockdowns and reopening their economies, but governments are now scrambling to avert further outbreaks.

The UK government has come under pressure over recent failings in its coronavirus testing system, with some people -- including health care workers -- experiencing difficulty in accessing tests or being directed to testing sites far from home. The president of Madrid's regional government, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, has suggested that migrant populations are partly to blame.
