Pedro Sánchez, the Spanish Prime Minister, has said that some restrictions as a result of the current pandemic lockdown, including keeping non-essential workers at home, could be lifted following Easter.
Speaking on the weekend, Sánchez said the country was “close to passing the peak of infections” but said he was extending lockdown measures until 25 April because the restrictions were “saving lives”.
