German Chancellor Angela Merkel has warned that up to 70 per cent of the German population could contract the coronavirus. As Germany reported its third death from the virus, Merkel said the country must do everything possible to slow the virus’s spread and prevent the healthcare system from being overwhelmed.

Merkel called on people to show solidarity with the elderly and people suffering underlying illnesses, who are likely to be most severely affected.
