The Coronavirus In Germany: Week 4

BERLIN, GERMANY - MARCH 30: Graffiti of a woman wearing a protective face mask next to an image of the coronavirus is seen on March 30 in Berlin, Germany. The coronavirus and the disease it causes, COVID-19, are having a fundamental impact on society, government and the economy in Germany. Public life has been restricted to the essentials in an effort to slow the spread of infection. Hospitals are scrambling to increase their testing and care capacity. A recession seems likely as economic activity is slowed and many businesses are temporarily closed. Schools, daycare centers and universities remain shuttered. Both federal and state government seek to mobilize resources and find adequate policies to confront the virus and mitigate its impact. (Photo by Adam Berry/Getty Images)
