Coronavirus update: Spain, Italy demand EU help; New Yorkers avoid travel


worldUpdated: Mar 29, 2020 17:13 ISTSpain and Italy demanded more European help as they fight still-surging coronavirus infections amid the continent’s worst crisis since World War II. Even rural American has not been immune, as virus hotspots erupt in Midwestern towns and in Rocky Mountain ski havens. Spain and Italy alone account for more than half of the world’s death toll and are still seeing over 800 deaths a day each. Experts say, however, that virus toll numbers across the world are being seriously under-represented due to limited testing and political decisions about which bodies are being counted. Spain, Italy, France and six other EU members have asked the union to share the burden of European debt, dubbed coronabonds in the media, to help fight the virus.
