Chancellor Angela Merkel says two-thirds of Germans may get coronavirus
Germany will spend what it takes to tackle the coronavirus which is likely to infect up to 70 percent of the population in Europe’s largest economy, Chancellor Angela Merkel said on March 11.
“We will do what we need to get through this. And then at the end we will look at what that means for our budget,” she told reporters, seeming to distance herself from Germany’s policy of no new borrowing.
Though conceding she did not know how the crisis would develop, Merkel said the risk was huge.
