Video / APEuropean countries are scrambling to tamp down a surge in Covid-19 cases and ramp up vaccinations, hoping to spare hospitals from becoming overwhelmed by the pandemic's latest deadly wave of infections. pic.twitter.com/EQM74Muu3p — Boris Johnson (@BorisJohnson) April 5, 2021On Sunday, coronavirus patients filled almost all of the 120 beds at the County Hospital of Bochnia, 40km east of the southern city of Krakow. Britain has recorded almost 127,000 coronavirus deaths, the highest toll in Europe. In Greece, which is struggling to emerge from a deep recession, most retail stores were allowed to reopen Monday despite an ongoing surge in Covid-19 infections. I encourage all Americans to get a #COVID19 vaccine as soon as it’s available to you.
