After Italy today we heard 294 more deaths in the last 24 hours bring the total in Spain to 803 and shockingly today. One official was quoted as saying that he believes that Madrid could see an 80% infection rate of Corona virus in the city that has a capital off Spain. That is quite extraordinary when you think about it, so a national lock down is in place like the one we've seen in Italy. Actually, the Spanish authorities are using drones to try to make sure that people stay out of public spaces away. Public spaces have basically been closed down. All shops, libraries, university. Everything is shut in order to stop this thing from spreading. Spain also faces a number of challenges like other European countries do. Namely, its population is on the older side, like here in the United Kingdom, like in Italy and elderly population very much in danger. Also, austerity across Europe bit hard, particularly on the health system in Spain. So that is a challenge for them on dhe.
