Sweden, from April 18 new powers to the government for coronavirus crisis
With the parliament's approval of a new law in the next few hours, the Swedish government will have new powers to manage the coronavirus crisis. The measure, the Swedish media report, will be in effect from April 18 to June 30 and will allow the executive led by Stefan Löfven to close ports, schools, gyms, restaurants and other activities without going through parliament. Despite the increase in Covid-19 cases - 9,141 according to data from Johns Hopkins University and 793 the victims - Sweden continues in its policy of "common sense" without lockdown. So much so that among the new powers of the government there will not be that of imposing a curfew, a measure considered too extreme to pass from the approval of the parliament.
