Europe like other regions is struggling to balance restrictions to halt Covid-19 against the need to revive economies as people there emerge from some of the world’s toughest lockdowns. “If the situation demands, reintroduction of stricter, targeted measures with the full engagement of communities may be needed.”
“If the important outbreaks are controlled quickly and if we manage to ensure that there are no outbreaks of such magnitude, we will have a much more contained situation.”French President Emmanuel Macron on Friday met his top ministers to discuss contagion measures, and his prime minister Jean Castex later announced on-the-spot tests would be required for travellers visiting from 16 high-risk countries including the US.
