BERLIN (Reuters) – German Economy Minister Peter Altmaier told German broadcaster RTL that he expected the coronavirus crisis to last until the end of May.
“I expect we’ll have to deal with the consequences for the whole month of April and the whole month of May,” he said, adding there would be a “considerable number of new infections” during that time.
“So I wouldn’t advise anyone to bank on this being over in eight days,” Altmaier said.
