Italy's Corona19 deaths increased by 420 more people a day to 255,000.

There are still 3,000 new infections a day, but the number of deaths per day has been the lowest since the 19th of last month.

Spain, the largest infected country in Europe, also had 367 new deaths per day, the lowest since the 21st of last month.

As the number of deaths decreases, there is a sense in Europe that the country is trying to resolve the blockade little by little.

France has decided to release the blockade nationwide and to announce the details by next Tuesday, and Spain is said to plan to release the blockade from May, where infection rates are low and beds are available.

Leaders of European countries such as Germany have also launched international conferences to speed up the development and distribution of corona19 vaccines and therapeutics through videoconferences with the United Nations and the World Health Organization.

They stressed the distribution of vaccines and treatments, saying the world is facing a common threat.
