Goodbye for nowpublished at 22:31 British Summer Time 1 June 2020
We are pausing out live coverage for now, but our colleagues in Asia will soon take over from us here in London. It's been a busy day with widespread US unrest bringing fears about the spread of coronavirus among protesters. The main stories on Monday are:
- Spain recorded no new deaths - the country had hundreds of fatalities daily in March
- Many parts of Europe are re-opening cultural sites, restaurants and hotels in the hope of retaining a summer tourist season
- The number of confirmed cases in Brazil has passed half a million - the second highest in the world
- Some of India's heavily-used train services have resumed, with reports of some overcrowding
- The Chinese city of Wuhan - where the virus first emerged - reported no new asymptomatic cases on Sunday
- And in England, some children returned to school, but attendance ranged between 40 and 70%
- The British government has insisted that its 'track and trace' scheme is working, but people hired to work on the programme say that's not the case
Our journalists around the world produce this live coverage.
On Monday they were: Matthew Henry, Jasmine Taylor-Coleman, Lauren Turner, Georgina Rannard, Victoria Lindrea, David Walker, Michael Emons, Joseph Lee, Rebecca Seales, Sophie Williams, Paulin Kola, Steven Sutcliffe, Yvette Tan, Saira Asher, Krutika Pathi and Jay Savage.
That's all for now. Thanks for reading. You can find much more coronavirus coverage here.
