Life After Lockdown : How People Reopening Their Plans

Around the world, some governments are beginning to slowly relax their social distancing restrictions.

A Third Of The Global Population Is On Coronavirus Lockdown. India, China, France, Italy, New Zealand, Poland, and the UK have implemented the world's largest and most restrictive mass quarantines.

More than 203,272 people have died and over 2,924,432 have been infected by the coronavirus worldwide.

Most countries have taken measures to protect against the spread of Covid-19 enforcing stay-at-home orders, closing nonessential businesses and advising people to wear protective gear and keep a safe distance from each other.

After 76 days in lockdown, the central Chinese city of Wuhan where the Covid-19 pandemic began is no longer sealed off from the world. This month authorities allowed residents to leave the city for the first time since Jan 23 when its 11 million residents were confined to contain the quickly spreading virus.

Many of those guidelines still apply. But beaches are beginning to reopen. Some students are returning to classrooms. Stores are opening their doors for the first time in several weeks.

It remains to be seen whether these relaxations might lead to an increase in cases. But life is far from returning to normal.
