In Europe, the number of patients is close to 400,000. Fortunately, the pace of patient growth has slowed somewhat in Italy, where the situation was severe. There is also a cautious prospect as to whether it has reached its peak, but it is too early to feel relieved.

News from the European side was compiled by reporter Kim Ji-sung.

It is a picture of a mass in Italy yesterday (29th) on Sunday.

The priests gather the mass on the roof of the building, and the believers each bow on the balcony of the house.


Italy's confirmed population is close to 100,000 and the death toll is over 10,000.

However, with the strong 'social distance' policy of the authorities, the increase of new confirmers seems to falter for the third day.

The number of deaths per day also decreased for two consecutive days.

The Italian health authorities meant it was a big change.

[Richeldi / Italian Government Advisor (Respiratory Specialist): This is a big change. The medical system is restored, and the measures taken so far are in effect.]

"The peak seems to be imminent," said Governor of Lombardy, the largest victim.

However, given the fact that the weekend was interrupted, the analysis prevails that the trend must be watched for a few more days.

Spain, on the other hand, had more confirmed and fatalities than Italy in one day.

Spain has decided to extend the state of emergency, which was declared full-time, two more weeks from today, and Madrid, which suffers the most, has entered an indefinite period of commemoration.

In Portugal, a 14-year-old boy, who was confirmed, was killed.

In Europe, the death of a teenager infected with a Corona19 in Europe, followed by the death of a 16-year-old girl in France.
