EU facing 'deep recession'

BBC World Service - Newshour, EU facing 'deep recession'

The European Commission predicts a decline in economic activity this year of 7.5%

How bad will the pandemic downturn be?  The official projection for Europe:  very, very bad.  Also on the programme: Covid-19 causes havoc in the least populated areas - we'll hear from a doctor practising among the Navajo Nation in the US; and the Danish singer-songwriter so keen to perform under lockdown, he arranged an audience of several hundred cars.
