Some countries in Europe also are making plans for a gradual return of their citizens to normal life, despite the continued rise of confirmed cases and deaths worldwide.

Associated Press Wrote:CANBERRA, Australia — A senior Australian minister has rejected Chinese criticisms that Australia is parroting the United States in calls for transparency on the origins of the coronavirus.
Treasurer Josh Frydenberg on Wednesday described Chinese Foreign Ministry criticisms as “unwarranted and unjustified.”
The Chinese ministry has criticized Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton’s call last week for China to be transparent about the origins of the virus.
Frydenberg told Australian Broadcasting Corp., “Dutton’s role, the prime minister’s role, my role, and all our colleagues’ roles, is to defend the Australian national interest, and that’s what we’ll continue to do, and we’ll speak up about it as required.”
Dutton’s call for Chinese transparency came after U.S. officials revealed intelligence agencies were assessing whether the respiratory virus escaped from a biological laboratory in the Chinese city of Wuhan, where the pandemic began.
The Chinese ministry said Dutton had obviously “received some instructions from Washington.”
“These days, certain Australian politicians are keen to parrot what those Americans have asserted and simply follow them in staging political attacks on China,” a ministry spokesman said in a transcript posted on the Chinese Embassy in Australia’s website.
The ministry has also attacked Australian Foreign Minister Marise Payne over her call this week for an independent review into the origins of the virus, including China’s handling of the initial outbreak.
The ministry said her “remarks are not based on facts.”
I had to copy and paste it here since there was no specific article handling this topic as I'd have preferred.
